At least visiting other parts of Manhattan -- I'm thinking for example LES -- there is definitely constant traffic and exhaust. Doesn't really matter if it's gridlock or not, moving cars emit more sound and fumes than idling cars do.

> moving cars emit more sound and fumes than idling cars do Per car, per minute? Sure. Per car, per trip? Not clear, but probably not. Per block, per day? Also not clear, but probably not.

  what does a trip mean for an idling car?

    A trip where a car drives some distance without idling in gridlock vs that same distance trip where the car spends significant time idling in gridlock in addition to time spent moving is the obvious answer.
