The Manhattan solstice happens twice a year, around the true summer solstice. This year it occurred on May 31st, 21 days before the actual summer solstice, and earlier this week on July 13th, 21 days after the actual summer solstice.

Two thousand years from now, when they unearth the ruins of this ancient city of the Americans, they will note that we were too crude to actually get the solstice quite right--not like that advanced culture that created Stonehenge.
