The New York City Department of Small Business Services (SBS) supports the economic development work of organizations throughout the City, from merchant block associations to economic development corporations and Business Improvement Districts (BIDs). 

The Services for Neighborhood Organizations section of our Web site provides useful information on how BIDs are created and how stakeholders can successfully get their BIDs up and running. Services for Neighborhood Organizations also provides access to all the information organizations need to initiate and manage an Avenue NYC or Commercial Revitalization contract with our Agency.

Please visit the Services for Neighborhood Organizations sub site for more details.
