The flatiron.

The flatiron.
In my visit to New York and with my passion for architecture, I could not stop visiting this iconic skyscraper. Completed in 1902, they nicknamed the iron (flatiron) for its similar shape. 87 meters high, 22 floors and 25 degrees has the famous vertex with only 2 meters wide are some of their data.
As an anecdote, the building generates a tunnel effect in the nearby streets, which together with the arrival of the cuts in the size of the skirts, caused the police to have to use thoroughly ejecting onlookers who were located along the sidewalk from 23rd street (23-skidoo).
