I am submitting this request on behalf of Canal Loft Hotel, located at 94 Canal Street, New York, NY 10002. Our hotel has been significantly impacted by the neighboring business, which regularly uses the curb lane, bicycle lane, sidewalk, and even part of the travel lane to store merchandise for its resale operation. As shown in the attached photo, large quantities of pallets, boxes, and products are left outside throughout the year, often blocking our hotel entrance and reducing the visibility of our business from the street. This ongoing obstruction creates several serious issues: Guests arriving with luggage have difficulty accessing the hotel entrance. Taxis, rideshare vehicles, and shuttle services are forced to stop in the travel lane because the curb is occupied. The bicycle lane and portions of the sidewalk are frequently obstructed, creating safety hazards for cyclists and pedestrians. The blocked frontage negatively affects the appearance of the hotel and has an adverse impact on our business operations and guest experience. We respectfully request that NYC DOT evaluate this location for a designated hotel loading zone in front of 94 Canal Street. A loading zone would provide a safe and legal area for guest pick-up, drop-off, and luggage loading while helping reduce congestion, discourage illegal curb use, and improve traffic flow and pedestrian safety. Thank you for your consideration of this request.

The comments from 2023 and 2024 are still valid. There are no loading zones so curb parking is treated as de facto long term storage for vehicles, forcing delivery drivers and taxis to double park. this is still an issue in 2026, and the issue extends the length of Center Blvd
The bike lane and sidewalk on the west side of Bailey Ave is riddled with garbage, abandoned shopping carts, broken glass, feces and overgrown weeds. The bike lane is blocked in multiple spots and there is broken glass on the path. Please attend to this. Please. Thank you.

A truck loaded with multiple cars was unloading them parked at the bus stop space (corner). The bus had to stop at the pedestrian crossing and blocking traffic behind the bus too. I informed the driver who was unloading the cars that they are blocking the bus stop and he just shrugged his shoulders. The mechanic shop had a parking space for the truck to be unloaded without blocking the bus stop but they’d rather use the bus stop space so it convenient for them and but not to the passengers.
We respectfully request the establishment of an official loading zone in front of 227 West 77th Street to accommodate essential building operations, including deliveries, move-ins, move-outs, and service vehicle access. Currently, curbside access on this block is significantly constrained. A substantial portion of the available parking is occupied by FDNY-designated parking associated with the nearby firehouse, while the adjacent loading zone serving the Art House Hotel frequently results in taxis and commercial vehicles extending onto our frontage. As a result, there is insufficient curb space to safely and efficiently accommodate routine loading and unloading activities for our building. West 77th Street is a one-way street, and because of the proximity of the firehouse, double parking is not a practical or safe alternative. These conditions create recurring operational challenges, impede deliveries, and contribute to unnecessary traffic congestion. We also respectfully request that the City evaluate the restoration of the temporary COVID-era FDNY parking configuration to its previous arrangement on West 77th Street. Reinstating the prior parking allocation, together with the designation of an official loading zone for 227 West 77th Street, would improve curb management, enhance traffic flow, and provide safe and reliable access for residents, service providers, and delivery vehicles while maintaining the operational needs of the FDNY
Im looking to see if its possible we can get a hotel loading zone outside of my hotel. I have written a few times and never get a responce. My hotel is located at 100 Greenwich street. This street is way too smal and just resently they moved the city bikes to our side of the street for constructin across the street. This is causing way too much cars to be jammed up. People trying to stop and deliver stuff to the stores makes it difficult. When we have linen delivery it is chaotic. with that being said we have the fire department down the block and when they try to get throuch sometimes its hard.which dosent make sence emergecy vehicles try to get down its not cool a few minutes can make a differance. The city bikes outside are way too many and not nessacery Washington stree has less traffic. It would make scence to move them. With that being said i would like ti request a loading zone to give cars enough room to pass. Can you please respond back to why you do or dont think its a good idea.
