MANHATTANENGE, OR MANHATTAN SOLSTICE, OCCURS WHEN THE SUN SETS IN ALIGNMENT WITH MANHATTAN'S GRID SYSTEM

Manhattanhenge happens only four times a year and is when the sunset is perfectly aligned with the New York grid. 
 
Thursday night clouds blocked the spectacle.  Friday night hundreds gathered to capture a photo of the rare occurrence.
