Nightlife & Shopping

"As mayor of the city that never sleeps, I know that this is a 24-hour city, and we need to support the nightlife businesses that keep this city vibrant. But noise, trash, and crime can disrupt local residents, and complaints can lead to unannounced inspections that shutter businesses – for a night, a week, or permanently. We must protect public safety, while ensuring businesses can remain open and New Yorkers can still dance in the dark.”

- Mayor Eric Adams announcing the new CURE process for nightlife public safety
