Presenting, Manhattan's famous Flatiron building, custom-modelled and lotted to fit adjacent to FA2 fractionally angled roads.
This is an old model I have had laying around for a long time ---- hope you can all get some use out of it!
The Flatiron Building, officially named the Fuller Building, is an iconic New York City landmark located at the intersection of Fifth Avenue, Broadway, and 23rd Street. Designed by architect Daniel Burnham and completed in 1902, it was one of the first skyscrapers to utilize a steel frame, allowing it to rise to an impressive height of 285 feet on a narrow triangular plot. Its distinctive wedge-like shape, resembling an old-fashioned clothes iron, quickly earned it the nickname "Flatiron Building." Built in the Beaux-Arts style, the facade features ornate limestone and terra-cotta detailing, including classical motifs like pilasters, scrollwork, and cornices, which enhance its visual elegance. The building's unique form made it a favorite subject of artists and photographers, such as Alfred Stieglitz and Edward Steichen, and it remains one of the most photographed structures in the world. The shape also creates notable wind currents, giving rise to early urban myths about men gathering to glimpse skirts blowing upward. A symbol of early 20th-century innovation, the Flatiron Building has become a cultural and architectural icon, embodying the creative energy and ingenuity of New York City.

Landmark lot, 1x2 - not sure about stats as I made this a long time ago. Eyecandy only.
The building is missing ground-level retail and nightlighting - so it is technically unfinished, but useful still, no doubt.
Enjoy!
