I find this highly surprising (in a good way). NYC is home to an industry that stands to benefit from a cashless economy and home to a government that never seems to turn down an increase in their ability to put people under a metaphorical microscope. I would have predicted they would be one of the first places to ban cash and one of the last to mandate businesses accept cash. I'm really happy to see consumer protection winning out over private interest for money and state interest for power but damn is that a curve ball in this day and age.
