Description
Flatiron Building NYC 1,
This is the Flat Iron building located in Manhattan NY. This view was taken from the 86th floor of the Empire State Building. How awesome is that!
To give this scene a more unique look, I took the original and posterized it so that it almost looks like a drawing. I thought this process helped to bring out the amazing architect and detail of the Flat Iron building and its surroundings.
"The distinctive triangular shape of the Flatiron Building, designed by Chicago architect Daniel Burnham and built in 1902, allowed it to fill the wedge-shaped property located at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and Broadway. The building was intended to serve as offices for the George A. Fuller Company, a major Chicago contracting firm. At 22 stories and 307 feet, the Flatiron was never the city's tallest building, but always one of its most dramatic-looking, and its popularity with photographers and artists has made it an enduring symbol of New York for more than a century."

I had the opportunity to walk around the area. It is a busy and lively area. There is a nice park across the street where you can sit, relax, feed the squirrels or simply, just people watch. Emmy Vickers,
