New Year’s Eve is not the night to have to find a cab, hotel room or ride-share. Wouldn’t it be nicer to just walk home after your fancy, downtown soiree? You can pay surge pricing for a ride after midnight, or — for a bit more — get yourself an entire pied-à-terre that will benefit your wild, Center City weekend life.
