Speaking as a lifetime New Yorker driver (not a CDL driver yet), I have a few tips:
Don't even try going crosstown on a side street. You WILL get stuck behind a double parked car/truck and have to back up, and nobody is likely gonna direct traffic and wave you through. Use a main street. Here are some in order from downtown to uptown. Canal Street Houston street 14th street 23rd street 34th street 42nd street 57th street 72nd street 79th street 86th street 96th street The FDR drive doesn't allow trucks. I guess it is considered a parkway.
