The Flatiron Building: Since its introduction as one of New York City’s first skyscrapers in 1902, the Flatiron has been a quintessential New York City icon that garners immediate recognition, beloved by both local New Yorkers and visitors alike. Floating above the intersection of two of New York City’s most famous streets, Fifth Avenue and Broadway, the Flatiron anchors its eponymous district. Its defining triangular shape emphasizes the building’s unique positioning while oversized windows frame unobstructed views in all directions that span the tree tops of Madison Square Park to the skylines of Downtown. Now, the Flatiron is poised to undergo a renovation that will preserve its historic exterior and simultaneously reconfigure its interior to meet 21st Century demands.
