Many highly-walkable cities handle this by allowing freight deliveries in the very early morning, say 3am-6am. This can get a little annoying if it’s a mixed use commercial/residential space, as the residents then have to deal with freight truck backup noises in the wee hours. Fair trade off, I’d say, to live in a highly desirable and human-scale neighborhood.
