ConEd shut of power to the Financial District at approximately 7PM, but there were a number of explosions at substations including the one at 14th Street. There are over 1 million New Yorkers without power; ConEd reports most places below Midtown are dark.

They evacuated NYU Langone Hospital when its backup generator failed, so yes, consider yourself very lucky.
