Hundreds of people gather in Flatiron Plaza in New York for a viewing party to watch, wearing their eye protection, the solar eclipse on Monday, April 8, 2024. New York City was not in the path of totality with the moon covering 89 percent of the sun during the 3:15 to 3:30PM window. (Â Richard B. Levine) Photo via Newscom (KEYSTONE/NEWSCOM/Richard B.
