Most (95%) of NYC is gravity fed from the Catskills. They don't need pumps to have water at ground level. People can come down with jugs to get it.

I don't understand the water shortage for the rest, it's not like the whole country is down, a dozen or so miles inland there is plenty of water and upstate NY has loads of swimming pool tankers to fill up, also diesel is available to fuel the trucks to bring it in.

Of course if they must have Aquafina in eco-bottles then yes, there may be shortages.
