Daylight Saving Time will take place on Sunday, March 12th, when clocks are turned forward 1 hour. This year, the change will take place at 2:00am, moving our clocks to 3:00am. This will put sunrise and sunset about an hour later, and there will be more light in the evening. It is the time of year when we ‘Spring Forward’.
Manhattan is filled with surprises, located in every direction including ~ up! And that is where we found this beauty ~ designed by McKim, Mead & White, and artist William Zorach. It has been name The Wizard of Park Avenue.
Daylight Saving Time 2022 begins this weekend on Sunday, March 13 when clocks “spring forward” an hour, meaning we get one less hour of sleep overnight.
We are clock-watching this morning at 470 Park Avenue South at 32nd Street, underneath The Wizard of Park Avenue.
In a surprise move, the U.S. Senate passed legislation on March 15, 2022 that would make daylight saving time permanent starting in 2023, ending the twice-annual changing of the clocks.
The Senate approved the measure, called the Sunshine Protection Act, unanimously by voice vote. Now the House of Representatives must pass the bill and the President must sign.
What do you think? Are you in favor of The Sunshine Protection Act?
The historic Clock in the lobby of The Waldorf Astoria
Daylight Saving Time 2022 begins this weekend on Sunday, March 13 when clocks “spring forward” an hour, meaning we get one less hour of sleep overnight.
This particular clock graced the lobby of the Waldorf Astoria until it closed for renovations. It is a nine-foot-tall, two-ton World’s Fair Clock Tower from the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago. The base of the clock is octagonal and holds eight commemorative plaques of presidents.
