What does this site cover?

Which New York records we read and what they miss.

What this covers. Businesses that sell alcohol, anywhere in New York, plus New York City restaurants at inspection. New York publishes no all-trades list of new shops, so salons, gyms and most retail aren't here. New company filings are listed separately and never counted as openings.

Where it comes from

Applicants for a liquor license show up on the State Liquor Authority's pending list, with the address and the date received. New York City restaurants get a pre-permit health inspection.

How we spot openings has the detail.
