Flat Iron Building
The Flatiron Building in New York City is known for its unique
triangular design resembling a flat iron. Built in 1902, it's a historic
skyscraper and iconic city symbol located in the bustling Flatiron
District. It's also known for its historical significance as one of New York
City's early skyscrapers and its enduring status as a symbol of the
city's skyline.
The building has seen better days and will have to view it in its full glory once the scaffolding is taken down.
