NYC, Flatiron Building, 1903

The Flatiron Building, originally the Fuller Building, is located at 175 Fifth Avenue in the borough of Manhattan, New York City, and is considered to be a groundbreaking skyscraper. The building sits on a triangular island-block formed by Fifth Avenue, Broadway and East 22nd Street, with 23rd Street grazing the triangle's northern peak. As with numerous other wedge-shaped buildings, the name "Flatiron" derives from its resemblance to a cast-iron clothes iron. The Flatiron Building was designed by Chicago's Daniel Burnham as a vertical Renaissance palazzo with Beaux-Arts styling. It epitomizes the Chicago school conception: like a classical Greek column, its facade is divided into a base, shaft and capital. The building was designated a New York City landmark in 1966, was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979, and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1989. Photographed by the Detroit Publishing Company, 1903.

Título:
NYC, Flatiron Building, 1903
Descripción:
Traducción automática: El edificio Flatiron, originalmente edificio Fuller, está ubicado en 175 Fifth Avenue en el distrito de Manhattan, Nueva York, y se considera un rascacielos innovador. El edificio se asienta sobre una isla triangular formada por la Quinta Avenida, Broadway y la calle 22 Este, con la calle 23 rozando el pico norte del triángulo. Como ocurre con muchos otros edificios en forma de cuña, el nombre "Flatiron" deriva de su parecido con una plancha para ropa de hierro fundido. El edificio Flatiron fue diseñado por Daniel Burnham de Chicago como un palacio renacentista vertical con estilo Beaux-Arts. Encarna la concepción de la escuela de Chicago: como una columna griega clásica, su fachada se divide en base, fuste y capitel. El edificio fue designado monumento histórico de la ciudad de Nueva York en 1966, se añadió al Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos en 1979 y fue designado Monumento Histórico Nacional en 1989.
