In the first half of 2015, two new LEGO® Architecture sets will be released: Lincoln Memorial (21022) and Flatiron Building (21023). So far, the details of the coming sets are still quite poor. There are a few pictures of the models and the packaging as well as information on the number of pieces per set, but exactly when and at what price the two sets are becoming available, is still unknown.
Thanks to a toy dealer from Bochum/Germany, this has changed. According to product description in its online store LEGO® Architecture Flatiron Building (21023) appears in May 2015 for 39,99 Euro.
Here is the full product description:
Available in May 2015 • Build a multi-faceted LEGO® model of the Flatiron Building, the most prominent building among the first skyscrapers in New York. Originally founded as the “Fuller Building”, it was built on a triangular property between Broadway, 5th Avenue and East 22nd Street and with its 20 floors at its completion in 1902, it was the tallest building in the city. Three years later, a penthouse apartment was built on top. The local nickname “Flatiron Building” was later officially adopted and is officially honoured as a National Historic Landmark. The LEGO® model reflects the elaborate limestone facade and the Beaux-Arts-Style of this elegant masterpiece of architect Daniel Burnham.
