Established in 1897
OUR HISTORY
OUR HISTORY
The English-American Loan and Trust Company established in 1895 quickly moved to construct the tallest building in Atlanta with a cast-iron steel structure.
Upon its opening, the building had an impressive roster of tenants, ranging from architects to retailers.
Key tenants included the English-American Co., architect Haralson Bleckley, Otis Bros. Co. (elevators), and Rand McNally.
The building is dubbed the Flatiron because of its narrow, triangular shape and has sister buildings in New York and Toronto.
During the 1996 Summer Olympics, the building was decorated with a gold medal.
Construction begins on 'FlatironCity' a modern space for creators, entrepreneurs and innovation.
FlatironCity is officially re-opened and is quickly becoming a home to entrepreneurs and hosting NYE’s Peach Drop.
