For the first time in 124 years, New Yorkers can call the Flatiron Building home.<\/p>\n
The historic conversion of New York\u2019s most-photographed landmark into luxury condominiums culminated it its first-ever residential listing over the weekend, The Post has learned.<\/p>\n
The for-sale condo commands a $16 million price tag.<\/p>\n
The 11th-floor residence spans 3,828 square feet, bringing the cost to $4,179 per square foot. The home includes four bedrooms and four bathrooms.<\/p>\n

The condo is the first out of 38 private residences within the multiyear conversion. Corcoran Sunshine is leading sales and marketing for all 38 of those dwellings.<\/p>\n
The painstaking project included the restoration of the building\u2019s 24-story terra-cotta and limestone fa\u00e7ade. Teams of contractors and craftsmen replaced 1,000 windows by hand and restored the rooftop\u2019s 6-foot-tall cornice.<\/p>\n
The Flatiron\u2019s redevelopment was led by the Brodsky Organization with the Sorgente Group, and is slated for completion in fall of this year. <\/p>\n

Architectural designer William Sofield, founder of Studio Sofield, undertook the interior overhaul. Sofield made a concerted effort to balance modernity with the building\u2019s 20th-century charms.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe reimagined interiors reflect a love of craftsmanship, texture and history,\u201d Sofield told The Post in a statement. \u201cWe carefully considered what kind of design would best honor the site\u2019s integrity and its place within the city. Every material, color palette and detail in the reimagined interiors was chosen with that intention in mind.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sofield said their interior design process was guided by the building\u2019s historic cast-iron railings, marble mosaic flooring and original ironwork.<\/p>\n
The newly listed condo occupies two corners along the Flatiron\u2019s southern end \u2014 or the \u201cbase\u201d of the triangle \u2014 with exposures to the south, east and west. Across the hall, the unit\u2019s narrower neighbor will look out over the Flatiron\u2019s iconic northern tip.<\/p>\n

At the listing\u2019s center sits a \u201cGreat Room\u201d with 10-foot ceilings and oversized windows that overlook the Gilded Age commercial architecture that lines Fifth Avenue\u2019s Ladies\u2019 Mile historic district. The room flows into a sleek kitchen, with metal flush-panel cabinetry and Gaggenau appliances.<\/p>\n
Both the great room and the corner primary suite feature custom-curved windows, specially designed for the Flatiron\u2019s rounded corners. <\/p>\n
The primary offers a windowed walk-in closet, a particularly angular dressing area with floor-to-ceiling closets and a windowed bathroom with a soaking tub. <\/p>\n
Before it was the beloved Flatiron Building, it was the Fuller Building. Architect Daniel Burnham\u2019s striking triangular design, completed in 1902, was a bold entry into New York\u2019s earliest set of steel-frame skyscrapers.<\/p>\n

The building\u2019s beaux arts exterior became an instant icon of the city\u2019s industrial era, and eventually gave its name to the surrounding neighborhood.<\/p>\n
Commercial tenants have thus far defined the Flatiron\u2019s history, beginning with the Fuller Company, followed by restaurants, clothing and toy companies, magazines and publishing houses and a host of other offices.<\/p>\n
The arrival of this unit is a historic first.<\/p>\n
Other 21st-century perks include radiant-heat flooring in four en suite bathrooms and adjustable lighting throughout the home.<\/p>\n
All 38 residences will have access to a wellness center with a 60-foot lap pool and sports simulator, a mezzanine-level billiards room and piano lounge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For the first time in 124 years, New Yorkers can call the Flatiron Building home.
