One of Manhattan’s most famous landmarks -- the wedge-shaped Flatiron Building -- is getting an overhaul to attract an entirely new crop of office tenants.
The nearly 120-year-old tower near the foot of Madison Square Park is empty, with all of its space available for the first time in more than 60 years, while it undergoes a total renovation of its interior.
