Question

I am a resident of Washington D.C. but work for and paid by a company that is based in New York City. My employer withheld NY & NYC taxes - was that an error?

Yes, that appears to be an error.   If you did not work or reside in New York then your employer should not have withheld NY taxes.  Taxes withheld are based where you work or reside not by where your employer's headquarters are located.
