Originally constructed in 1926 and renovated in 2019, the property is ideally located in the heart of the Flatiron District, with numerous restaurants and amenities including Madison Square Park and Union Square Park in the immediate area. 860 Broadway provides extraordinary access to mass transit and stands in close walking distance to the 23rd Street subway station and the 14th St-Union Square subway station.
