List of flatiron buildings

This is a list of flatiron buildings that are relatively notable. Any notable building shaped approximately like a flatiron can be included, regardless of whether the name of the building is "Flatiron Building" or not. Such a building is typically constructed at an intersection of streets or railway tracks that meet at an acute angle. One of the most famous is the Flatiron Building in New York City, which was finished in 1902.
