The Flat Iron Building in Chicago is an artist colony, housing studios of visual artists, dancers, theatre artistes, and musicians. This triangular behemoth at the intersection of Milwaukee Avenue, North Avenue, and Damen Avenue was built in 1913 by the great Holabird & Roche, one of their few major products outside the Loop. The first floor is all retail, but the second and third floors have small art studios and galleries. The first Friday of every month has open hours, and a few studios and galleries are also open on Saturday and Sunday afternoons.
