In a somewhat grim bit of “good” news, a Partnership for New York City analysis of MTA data shows serious ridership gains at key subway stations in the Midtown and Lower Manhattan office districts.…
That fits with another Partnership finding: The number of workers back in the office rose to 58% for Aug. 23-Sept. 15, up from 49% in the same period last year.
And nearly three-quarters of Manhattan office workers are back at their desks at least three days a week.Indeed, The Post’s own crunching of MTA data shows that some of these stops are still significantly below 2019, pre-pandemic levels. Which means that all the businesses that cater to office workers are wondering if this “new normal” is temporary — or permanent.The best City Hall can do is focus on the recent trends that keep commuters reluctant to come in: crime and growing public disorder from out-of-control homeless to the ever-present reek of pot.
New York City was a great place to work before COVID and lockdown-mania hit; there’s no reason it can’t be even better in the near future.
