Chelseahenge!

Whether it’s finding a soul mate or winning the lottery, you can wait your whole life for the stars to align. But once in a blue moon, our favorite mass of incandescent gas falls into perfect alignment with the buildings of West Chelsea — as it did this past Saturday, June 8. That’s when our freelance shutterbug Pamela Wolff captured this fleeting 21st Street phenomenon (which is not to be confused with July 12’s upcoming, midtown-friendly Manhattanhenge). Wolff has taken to calling this hyperlocal June version “Chelseahenge” — and as chair of the Community Board 4 Landmarks Committee, that moniker just might stick!
