Flat Iron Building

A close in shot showing some of the detail on top of the Flat Iron Building
And zooming out a little
The Flatiron Building, originally the Fuller Building is a triangular 22-story, steel-framed landmarked building located at 175 5th Ave in Manhattan, NYC
When built, completed in 1902, it was one of the tallest buildings in the city at 20 floors high.
The building sits on a triangular block formed by 5th Ave, Broadway and East 22nd Street As with numerous other wedge-shaped buildings, the name "Flatiron" derives from its resemblance to a cast-iron clothes iron.
The building, which has been called "one of the world's most iconic skyscrapers and a quintessential symbol of New York City” The neighborhood around it is called the Flatiron District after its signature building, which has become an icon of New York City.
And finishing off with a fuller shot of this iconic building

Man they really don't put that flare in the detail of things anymore.
Ohh yes i so agree the sure built with detail and flare back then, now its more a case of trying to one up other buildings and not so much detail I think
Same with cars to. Like the old Duesies and the like had tons of detail in every corner.
Ohh yes indeed the real classics :)
I grew up right next to Auburn, so saw them all the time. Real classics for sure!
Sorry probably a brain fad eon my part where is Auburn, I think I remember seeing an Auburn UNiversity mentioned somewhere but no idea where that is LOL
Different Auburn. Auburn, IN. It's where the Auburn, Cord and Duesenberg motor and chassis were built. They have a huge classic car show each year called the ACD Show. The building they were built in still stands and is now a classic car museum.
OK Cool sounds a place and show I would love to visit :)
