If it’s clear by Wednesday night, you might get to see a spectacular sight.
Manhattanhenge is back!
Manhattanhenge is a rare celestial-spiritual phenomenon that occurs when the sun lines up perfectly with Manhattan’s East-West grid.
Tonight, it should occur around 8:15, according to the Museum of Natural History.
“For best effect, position yourself as far east in Manhattan as possible. But ensure that when you look west across the avenues you can still see New Jersey. Clear cross streets include 14th, 23rd, 34th. 42nd, 57th, and several streets adjacent to them. The Empire State building and the Chrysler building render 34th street and 42nd streets especially striking vistas.”
If it’s visible, send us photos! Here are some photos from the last time it happened.
