Question 1:
If this is Orthodox and NYC, why no eruv? I thought that allowed outside the house chores to be considered indoors. Am I misunderstanding the actual reason for the eruv?
Question 2:
Did the Orthodox employ "house goys" for just such reasons?

Eruv doesn’t have anything to do with this situation. Why would you think it does?

Carrying inside the limits of an eruv is generally deemed fine. Switching a current of electricity, not fine (deemed a kind of fire). Or, cooking. The house gentile generally fended for himself or herself and the family would benefit by the generosity of the gentile who understood the situation and sympathized.
None of this is directly biblical. The bible forbids “work” without much elaboration.
