Oh, please. NYC is very unfriendly to business unless your business happens to be a giant in financial services, a tourist attraction, or a professional sports franchise.
Uh yeah — I’d add media conglomerate, fashion leader, big pharma or major advertising concern.
What’s wrong with that? Big business creates jobs. Lotsa, lotsa jobs.
If you’re a guy who wants to open a corner store, then you best be clever, patient and ruthless.
