Hello. I still have another year before my passport expires, but in a few more trips I will be out of pages. Any suggestions on how to obtain additional pages? I live in NYC. Thanks

While you used to be able to add pages, I do not believe you are able to do that anymore. You need a new passport.
Did you already went to the Post Office that offers the Passport Renewals? Thanks! That's a great start from there!
You can not obtain additional visa pages for a US passport. From their Q&A
"28. Can I get extra visa pages for my passport?
"No, you cannot. Applicants who need additional pages in their valid passports must obtain a new passport by mail. On your passport form, select the option for a "large book" when applying for a new passport." https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/passport-help/... There is no extra charge for the 'large book'.
Add time for shipping both ways to these processing times:
"Current Processing Times (applied on or after December 18, 2023)
"Routine 6 to 8 weeks
"Expedited 2 to 3 weeks
"Expedited at Agency Must have international travel within 14 calendar days" https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/how-apply/proc...
Thanks everyone. I was hoping there was a way to add the pages (maybe at some third party location in nyc) without having to send my passport
The passport agency used to be able to add more pages for a fee, but I believe they have discontinued this option now.
It's not a bad idea to renew your passport now, as processing times are quite long. When I renewed last year it took about 4 months to get my new passport.
