New York City is creating a first-of-its kind network of rest hubs designed to give the more than 65,000 food delivery workers across the Five Boroughs places to recharge during their shifts.
Mayor Eric Adams was joined by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer Monday in announcing the unique program that will utilize available vacant or abandoned infrastructure (such as shuttered city newsstands) to provide a place for delivery workers to rest, charge devices including electrical bikes, and seek shelter from the elements.
