    Adjacent to the Flatiron Building, Madison Square Park (opened in 1847) is a popular green oasis in the Flatiron District. The park extends from 23rd Street and 26th Street on 5th Avenue and Madison Avenue. Especially during lunchtime, many New Yorkers use the park for their lunch break.

    In the 19th century, the Madison Square Park area was considered one of the most desirable addresses in the city. In the '90s it was a drug hub and an area best avoided.

    Since 2001, thanks to the Madison Square Park Conservancy, much has been redesigned, events created for artists and a Shake Shack restaurant built in the middle of the park.

    The park owes its name to James Madison, the fourth President of the United States.
