21023 LEGO Architecture Flatiron Building, New York

Description

Craft a detailed LEGO® replica of New York's iconic Flatiron Building, an architectural marvel from the city's early skyscraper era. Originally known as the Fuller Building, this 20-story structure was completed in 1902 on a unique triangular plot at the intersection of Broadway, Fifth Avenue, and East 22nd Street. A penthouse added in 1905 brought the total to 21 floors. Celebrated for its distinctive limestone façade and Beaux-Arts design by architect Daniel Burnham, the building earned its famous nickname from locals, which later became its official name. Today, it stands as a designated National Historic Landmark. This intricate model faithfully recreates the building's elegant architectural details in LEGO form, complete with a display nameplate. The set includes a booklet with insights into the building's design, architecture, and history (available in English; additional languages can be downloaded at LEGO.com/architecture).
