Biz owners near Trump tower losing Biz.

"Nearly a quarter of the restaurants, retailers, food stores, and beauty salons said they'll have troubling paying their rent, and more than 12 percent warned they might have to lay off workers, relocate or simply shut down. A whopping 70 percent also said they'd suffered delays getting deliveries or having their trash removed."
