I don't know if NYC has any such laws, but zooming Plugshare in to Manhattan shows over 100 J1772 sites (the L2 standard charger -- typically delivering ~3 to 7kW) and 33 Tesla Wall Chargers (which only work on a Tesla and deliver ~8 to 20 kW depending on circuit).

The other option that may work is good-old 120V charging -- if there's an outlet near your space, that would charge at 1.2kW. That is "only" 3 miles of range per hour charged, but if you are not driving every day, it would work in conjunction with Superchargers...
NYC has adopted some requirements on parking lot and garage owners that require a certain percentage of stalls to be "ready" for EV charging, though these seem to apply only to new builds or renovations. I haven't dug that deeply into the minutiae of the rules.
