Outdoor tables saved thousands of New York City restaurants from ruin during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The freewheeling era of outdoor dining has come to an end.
Restaurants hit a deadline to choose between abiding by strict regulations for their alfresco setups or dismantling them.
Fewer than 3,000 restaurants have applied for roadway or sidewalk seats under the new system.
A row of sheds owned by a sushi counter, a coffee shop, a Mexican eatery and a Filipino restaurant stand side-by-side.
City officials say restaurants who missed the deadline are welcome to apply in the future.
Those that haven't will soon be fined $ 1,000 each day their set-ups remain.
