Broadway vs. the Pedicabs

Curbside skirmishes are common. Last spring, the proprietors of Glass House Tavern, on Forty-seventh Street, complained on Instagram about the horde of pedicabs causing “dangerous situations for pedestrians” and being “verbally abusive to our staff” as the drivers waited for the musical “Six” to let out next door. Glass House posted a sign warning tourists about the pedicabs’ nine-dollar-per-minute rate; in apparent retaliation, the restaurant was besieged with negative reviews online.
