I've read in several places that the UN headquarters in New York is
international territory. Is this really true? Did the US cede
sovereignty of that parcel to international authorities? Does the
state of New York recognize this? How about the City of New York?

Even though I've seen this written in several places (just google
"United Nations" and "international territory"), it sounds fishy to
me. If you committed a crime at the UN headquarters, would you be
tried by an international court? That doesn't make sense.
