is that a manhattan thing, or does that apply to other boroughs?

I can't speak for staten island, but it's true for the rest of the boroughs

How do they deal with large buildings? I assume if there is some kind of door man or reception they just leave it there? I assume they don’t go up elevators? Or do they?

They do go up the elevator right to your apartment door. Why wouldn't they?

I might worry my bike would get stolen. Either I lock it up or I bring it up. Both of which sound kind of inconvenient.

[–] Beacon@fedia.io 1 points 1 week ago

They often lock their bike before coming up. There are poles and gates everywhere
