from NYC NOW · host Karen Yi, Michael Hill, Janae Pierre

New York City food delivery customers can now tip more easily under new City Council laws affecting apps like DoorDash and UberEats. Meanwhile, a sweeping Midtown rezoning could bring 10,000 new homes to Manhattan’s West Side. Plus, we remember Latin jazz legend Eddie Palmieri, who helped define New York’s salsa sound. Music journalist Aurora Flores Hostos joins us to reflect on his legacy. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
