New Yorker here:
It's Thanksgiving, the holiday decorations come out of storage all over the city. Rockefeller Center puts up the tree. We tend to get a lot of increased tourism and foot traffic during the holidays which logically means were at higher risk.
Military presence has been commonplace during the holidays or major events in NYC for as long as I can remember.

Addendum, when they refer to garbage can bombs, I'm pretty certain they are referring to the 2016 events: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_New_York_and_New_Jersey_bombings Otherwise things have (thank god) been relatively quiet here.
There were a few incidents before that as well, and even pressure cooker bombs.
