- rcurry 6y agoFull power was restored to NYC on the 16th. Yes, that seems about right - I stayed at my office for two days until a coworker commandeered a car that was in our parking garage (owned by a guy who was out of town on business) and gave me a ride home to Freeport. The city was pretty much paralyzed for two days. Some places might have done better but NYC was dead in the water for about two days.
