One of the most remarkable buildings in New York, the Flatiron Building is one of the oldest skyscrapers of the city, and truly unique in its appearance.
Your image of the building changes a lot when you change perspective. Walk sideways, and the edges of the building become much sharper still. It looks like a facade, like a high wall with windows, as somehow you can see this is not a standard skyscraper. Crossing the street brings you to directly at the rounded foot of Flatiron Building. It now becomes clear that this building is finely decorated. Many sculptures embellish the wall near the top floor: faces of humans and lions, intricate columns, as well as geometrical figures. Some parts of the building are protruding, the walls have lines engraved in them, and at regular intervals, more geometrical figures further adorn the building.
