    Construction firms make a ton of money in NYC, they can handle it, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone delivering food from a car in the city, they all use bikes.

      Commercial deliveries, not consumer. Every pizza joint needs flour, cheese, and tomatoes.

        We’ll see how it plays out. I could see less traffic meaning you can make more deliveries in a day, I figure one extra commercial delivery more than makes up for $10 extra.

          Possibly. It may disproportionately impact eateries with more diverse menus or foods with shorter shelf life. Time will tell.

            Eh, it’s NYC food is already super diverse. There’s fairly established infrastructure for niche food products. If that truck needs a single restaurant to eat that $10, they were probably already paying an arm and a leg for that delivery.
