The Blackout of 2003 was one of those things that while it seemed like
it could be a potential disaster at first, ended up being no more than a major
annoyance to millions and millions of New Yorkers.
Indeed, many viewed it as an adventure, and ended up spilling into the streets
to socialize, hang out and just plain have fun. This is a page for the pictures
of that memorable night of August 14th to 15th, 2003. Here you will see New Yorkers
come out to support their city, help each other, party, or perhaps just take advantage
of the huge discounts offered by the local merchants due to loss of power.
See what happens when a City that Never sleeps gets put to bed by a massive power
outage.

conditions are sub-par on many of them, but there's little we can do about that.)
