Nice job updating a classic. It’s fun to see a totally new look !

Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flatiron_Building) has a good intro to the building:
The Flatiron Building, which when constructed was called the Fuller Building, was one of the tallest buildings in New York City upon its completion in 1902 and is considered one of the first skyscrapers. The building, at 175 Fifth Avenue in the borough of Manhattan, sits on a triangular island block at 23rd Street, Fifth Avenue, and Broadway, anchoring the south (downtown) end of Madison Square.

The neighborhood around the building is called the Flatiron District after its signature building.

I am happy that someone likes it. Well i did know the history but thank you for adding this !

You’re welcome. We both know it as an important piece of architectural history, but many visitors may wonder why you chose it, so I added the history. I learned some new stuff by going to Wikipedia and YouTube trying to find a decent video, so I taught myself too!

Yeah there is always something new to find out about that building
