When the setting sun aligns precisely with the Manhattan street grid, it creates a radiant glow of light across Manhattan's brick and steel canyons, aka Manhattanhenge! As the sun sets on the grid, half the disk sits above and half below the horizon. View the sunset from Manhattan's main east/west thoroughfares at 8:13pm on 14th Street, 23rd Street, 34th Street, 42nd Street, and 57th Street.
