This is a list of flatiron buildings that are relatively notable. Any notable building shaped approximately like a flatiron can be included, regardless of whether the name of the building is "Flatiron Building" or not. Such a building is typically constructed at an intersection of streets or railway tracks that meet at an acute angle. One of the most famous is the Flatiron BuildinginNew York City, which was finished in 1902.

Locations of all having coordinates below may be seen on a map by clicking "Map all coordinates using OpenStreetMap" at the right side of this page.

At one time there were only ten flatiron buildings in Canada, with six within Ontario. Moses Block, a historic site in Sudbury was completed sometime between 1907 and 1915 by Hascal Moses and the Moses Family. The design of Moses Block was inspired by the famous Flatiron Building in New York City.[citation needed]
