Offering many of the city’s best restaurants and shops
set amid classic New York architecture, the Flatiron
District is no longer under the tourist radar. At 23rd
Street is the famous triangular Flatiron Building,
which makes a good picture no matter what angle you
photograph it from. Be sure to look up at the elegant
architecture as you stroll the streets - much of this
neighborhood is part of a historic district that was
...More
home to many of the city’s most famous department
stores at the turn of the century. At the northern end
of the neighborhood, Madison Square Park is best known
for being home to a famous burger shack, but it can
also be a quiet refuge to spend an afternoon, and it
frequently hosts interesting public art exhibits. In
the lower part of the Flatiron District you'll find
Union Square, a bustling crossroads at all times of
day and night.
