If you want NYC then perhaps post on the New York City board. What kind of buisness; you aren't saying? Please clarify this so people can better make recomendations.
It depends on the type of business. Starting one is very hard here because the economy is bad, and the place is over saturated with any business that has a chance at making money.
What are the challenges to open a restaurant in New York..?
NYC Food Laws, Liquor License, finding the right commercial property that is properly ventilated for a restaurant (and if it is not, you will need to have it refitted), marketing and advertising, competition (!) and first and foremost, capital.
The other problem is if you take over a space that housed an existing restaurant, you need to research why it did not survive (location, type of food served, health department shut it down etc).
You would really find better information on a small business forum.
