NYC has become extremely more hostile to pedestrians in only the last 4-5 years. Now, not only are you on the lookout for cars when crossing, but you have to add e-bikers and cyclists. Both of those often don't honor one way streets, so now you have to look both ways. They don't stop at red lights, so you have to look both ways when you have right of way. They ride on the sidewalk, so you have to be careful when turning a corner. Society loves these vehicles as eco-friendly, and carves out a part of the road for them.
No one carves anything for pedestrians. It's time to leave the city, which now seems left for people in their 20s and people who generally don't care about any order whatsoever.
