From the street, we usually only see the finished facade. During corner reconstruction at 50 East 42nd Street, portions of the exterior were removed, offering a rare view at the steel and brick masonry normally hidden beneath the surface.

Views from 260 West End Avenue.

Every building presents its own challenges. Documenting existing conditions at different elevations helps capture details that can’t be seen from street level.

A recent inspection at 121 Nassau Street gave our team a closer look at one of the building’s defining architectural features. More than a century later, details like these continue to stand out above the Lower Manhattan skyline.

This is one we’re actually supposed to be on.

Lexi and Yuri recently visited the Flatiron to get a closer look at the ongoing restoration work and take in some incredible views from above.

There’s nothing quite like seeing this landmark up close and watching its next chapter take shape.

A familiar New York icon is gradually coming back into view.

With each section unveiled, the Flatiron Building reminds us why it has remained one of the city’s most beloved landmarks for more than a century.

We’re proud to play a role in this remarkable project and look forward to sharing more as progress continues.
