Nekadašnja zgrada Saveznog izvršnog veća, danas Palata Srbije izgrađena je 1959. godine kod Bulevara Nikole Tesle i Bulevara Mihajla Pupina. Svečano otvaranje obeleženo je 1961. godine kada se u Beogradu odvijala konferencija šefova država i vlada Nesvrstanih zemalja. Ideja o izgradnji ovog arhitektonskog čuda nastala je sa idejom o izgradnji nove prestonice tadašnje socijalističke države.
U ovoj građevini svoje kancelarije imali su i predsednici Josip Broz Tito i Svetozar Marković.
Gradnja je započeta 1947. godine, a arhitete iz Zagreba dobile su projekat zbog monumentalnog izgleda koji je u to vreme bio gotovo nedostižan. Zbog političke situacije došlo je do prekida u gradnji ali je ona nastavljena 1956. godine kada je projekat preuzeo arhitekta Mihailo Janković koji je uneo značajne promene.
Zgradu su izgradile omladinske brigade iz cele bivše Jugoslavije u obliku ćiriličnog slova N.
Ona predstavlja simbol Novog Beograda i jedna je od prvih objekata na ovom tlu, sa svojom izuzetno upečatljivom, glamuroznom arhitekturom, bogata likovnim i kulturnim ostvarenjima 2013. godine ozvaničena je kao spomenik kulture.

The former building of the Federal Executive Council, today the Palace of Serbia, was built in 1959 near Nikola Tesla Boulevard and Mihajlo Pupin Boulevard. The ceremonial opening was marked in 1961, when a conference of heads of state and government of the Non-Aligned Countries took place in Belgrade. The idea of building this architectural wonder arose with the idea of building a new capital of the then socialist state. Presidents Josip Broz Tito and Svetozar Marković also had their offices in this building. Construction began in 1947, and architects from Zagreb were awarded the project due to its monumental appearance, which was almost unattainable at the time. Due to the political situation, there was an interruption in construction, but it continued in 1956, when the project was taken over by architect Mihailo Janković, who introduced significant changes. The building was built by youth brigades from all over the former Yugoslavia in the shape of the Cyrillic letter N. It represents the symbol of New Belgrade and is one of the first buildings on this land, with its extremely impressive, glamorous architecture, rich in artistic and cultural achievements, in 2013 it was officially declared a cultural monument.
