Manhattanhenge 2024 is visible again tonight in NYC. Here's where to watch for the best view.
NEW YORK -- Manhattanhenge returned Tuesday night in New York City, with a second chance to see it Wednesday.
Here's everything to know for the best view.
What is Manhattanhenge?
Manhattanhenge takes place when the sunset lines up with the city's street grid. The sun appears to set perfectly between the buildings.
The phenomenon happens about four times a year -- two days in the spring, and two days in the summer.
It always draws a big crowd of spectators trying to take photos and videos.
"Reverse Manhattanhenge" then happens in the winter months, when the sunrise aligns with the grid.
