New Yorkers on foot and in automobiles take to the streets after power outages were reported in the metropolitan area, as well as in Detroit, Toronto and Ottawa, August 14, 2003. Anxious New Yorkers struggled with the massive power outage on Thursday that stranded rush-hour commuters, left thousands stuck underground in the subway system and evoked powerful memories of the Sept. 11 attacks.

People fill the street in Herald Square in New York August 14, 2003 after a blackout hit the city. U.S. power regulators said a massive power outage that hit New York City and other cities in the eastern United States and Canada was not caused by a terror attack. The outage was caused by an outage at a Manhattan power plant which destabilized the power grid as far as Canada, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) spokesman Bryan Lee said.
