Overview

• Full Manhattanhenge occurs at 8:20 p.m. ET on July 12, with a half Manhattanhenge at 8:21 p.m. ET on July 13.
• Best viewing spots include 14th, 23rd, 34th, 42nd, and 57th Streets, Tudor City Overpass, and Hunter's Point South Park.
• The phenomenon, named by Neil deGrasse Tyson, aligns the sun with Manhattan's grid only twice a year.
• Crowds are expected, so arriving at least 30 minutes early is recommended for the best view.
• Rain may obscure the view on Friday, but clearer skies are forecast for Saturday.
