Local solar noon in New York State is almost never when the clock says 12:00. That's one of the things we sacrificed when we introduced time zones in the 1880s. People at that time realized that it was far preferable to be up to a half hour or 45 minutes off from actual noon than for every city to have its own time. The only part of New York where local solar noon coincides with 12:00 Eastern Standard Time is along the line of 75° west longitude, but even that is true only during the four months per year that we're not using daylight saving time.

Why doesn't the Doppler shift appear when an observer moves toward the source?

Doppler's effect does not happen when the observer is moving towards the source because unlike the source when observer moves forward the waves are not compressed and they pass the observer without being compressed and since the doppler effect is due to the Change in wavelength of the wave, it fails to occur.
