In the game
A snowy corner of the Flatiron District where the white clock tower rises over the park.
The real place
The tower in the game is the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company Tower on the east side of Madison Square Park. Completed in 1909, it was the tallest building in the world until 1913, and its four clock faces are still among the largest in the city.
Visiting
Start in Madison Square Park, then walk to the south end of the park for a classic view of the Flatiron Building at the junction of Broadway and Fifth Avenue.
