NEW YORK — Sorgente Group SpA, the Italian real-estate investor, bought a majority stake in Manhattan’s Flatiron Building, the 22-story triangular tower used as the Daily Bugle newspaper’s headquarters in the Spider-Man movies.
Sorgente Group now owns more than 50 percent of the building at Fifth Avenue and 23rd Street, a 1902 property named for its resemblance to a clothes iron. Sorgente didn’t disclose the purchase price.
