It was great foresight on the part of our beloved city forefathers to lay out the city in such a way that this happens every year just around my birthday.

Once again, the sun will be perfectly lined up with the east-west streets of New York.
So get outside to catch the ‘Full Sun on the Grid‘ at 8:27 pm ET, if the weather permits, and enjoy it. (You can see it one more time tomorrow night.)
(And hey, pay attention to the traffic lights. Don’t ruin my birthday by getting run over by a car!)
