Flatiron Building, Office building at Houston and West 9th streets, Fort Worth, United States.

The seven-story Flatiron Building features a triangular shape with a two-story base, five-story body, and decorative cornice adorned with terra-cotta lions heads.

Constructed in 1907 by Sanguinet and Staats architects, this structure became one of the earliest skyscrapers in the Southwest and the first steel-reinforced concrete building in Fort Worth.

The building exhibits Chicago School architectural elements through its clear division of base, shaft, and crown, following the principles established by Louis Sullivan.

The structure contains 2,755 square feet of office space across multiple floors, with the first floor currently designated for events and other floors available for commercial rental.

The reinforced concrete construction over steel frame made this building a pioneer in construction techniques, setting new standards for architectural development in North Texas.
