10 Sights & Landmarks in Gramercy-Flatiron That You Shouldn't Miss
Conquering New York in one visit is impossible. Instead, hit the must-sees – the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art – and then explore off the beaten path with visits to The Cloisters or one of the city’s libraries. Indulge in the bohemian shops of the West Village or the fine dining of the Upper West Side. The bustling marketplace inside of Grand Central Station gives you a literal taste of the best the city has to offer.

This Daniel Burnham design got its moniker because, as you might guess, it resembles an iron.

I decide to write a review because when people don't know the truth behind something, they just write, wrong reviews, people should know! Before write anything, It is like say something without thinking. First of all this building is amazing! Specially because It was built in 1902, so If you carefully look at it, It is a piece of art! the shape of it was made under the need of the land shape, It is where 2 street begins, for this you need to know, now you know the shape is the main attraction of this building and artist during a century, photographed and painted it, here is where popularity ranked higher Building has arquitectural influences from France and Italy, specially renaissance art, no one can say It doesn't worth unless you ignore the importance of this art current The Flatiron building is the right sample of what expects don't like but who believed in its own projects never mind do and become a success New York is known mainly by its tall building, culturally speaking, If you are in the same page of visit place by its story, there you are! This is the most beautiful building I have ever seen, worth the stop by, to admire the shape and getting closer to admire the detail too!!!

The boyhood home (1858-1872) of the only United States President born in Manhattan. It is a national historic site managed by the National Park Service. The site includes galleries and 1865 period rooms with original objects that relate the story of young Theodore Roosevelt, his ranch days, presidency and exploration period.

I visited the Theodore Roosevelt Birthplace National Historic Site on 4 March 2020 at 3:40 in the afternoon, which seems to have been the perfect time as there were very few people and I had time to look at the items in the gallery before taking the 4 o’clock tour. The gallery includes photographs of TR’s life, some of his best quotes, explanations of his family history, as well as artifacts including family drinking ware, the last pen TR used as President, and election memorabilia. The Park Ranger who led the tour was very informative and clearly passionate about the history of TR and could relate him to other historic sites in New York City as well as National Park sites throughout the country. He led us from room to room, giving examples of what kind of events occurred there (such as the founding of the Natural History Museum in the parlor), and discussing how these events would have impacted a young Theodore Roosevelt and influenced his later policies. For a relatively small site, the TR Birthplace has a lot to offer and is a fantastic place to learn about one of the most popular Presidents!

Originally a residential area, this square has become one of the more important in New York history. It has become a prime location for many businesses and major buildings.

Madison Square Park is located at the beginning of Madison Avenue, at the intersection of Fifth Avenue, Broadway and 23rd Street, in the Flatiron District. It is wonderful to stroll around the park, or to just sit on a bench and enjoy the surroundings. The park is surrounded by beautiful buildings, such as the iconic Flatiron Building, with its unique shape; the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company Tower with its emblematic bell tower, which currently is home to the New York Marriott Edition hotel an the beautiful Clocktower restaurant; and the Art Deco Eleven Madison building, with its famous restaurant Eleven Madison. Nearby is the New York Life Building, which is topped with a stunning shiny pyramid. There are many nice places to eat near this park. In addition to The Clocktower and Eleven Madison, there are many other wonderful options nearby, such as The Smith, La Peccora Bianca, Maialino, Gramercy Tavern, Eataly, Maison Kayser, or you can just have burgers at The Shake Shack, which originally started as a hot dog cart right in Madison Square Park. It is nice to walk from Madison Square Park, to Union Square Park and afterwards to Washington Square Park. You can see all types of people, each one enjoying the parks in their own way.
