At a pizzeria next to the work site for the future 106th Street stop on the Q, owner Ediberto Rendon says his business is “in survival mode.”

“My regulars know I’m here, but I don’t get new customers.”

Rendon said he is “all for” the MTA extending the Q line to East Harlem.

But he’s worried whether his pizzeria can survive years of being next to a construction site — and behind fencing.

“The thing is it’s really hurting me right now,” he said.
