wEnDy/Flickr You might guess this is an Italian export but it's a New York original. The dessert goes by many names: rainbow cookies, rainbow cake, Neapolitan cookies, seven layer cookies, Venetian cookies, seven layer cake, Italian flag cookies, tricolor cookies, and tricolore. New York City has been making (and eating) them for a century, beginni...
Joyvais the #1 maker of the sesame-based dessert halvah in the U.S. Their products (they're also well known for their jelly rings and tahini) tend to be especially prominent in grocery stores around Passover. Founder Nathan Radutzky, in immigrant from Ukraine, began the business as a pushcart halvah vendor on the Lower East Side in 1907. He soon mo...
Although not the first crowdfunding platform, Kickstarterexpanded the original concept to a wide range of creative projects. It remains a major force, responsible for more than 20% of the market. Some $7 billion has been pledged through the site. The company was born in New York City in 2009 and is still based in Brooklyn.
Schaefer Beer seems like it should be a Milwaukee stalwart but it started out in New York City, Manhattan to be specific. The F. & M. Schaefer Brewing Company, founded by Frederick Schaefer and his brother Maximilian, goes all the way back to 1842. Their first expansion was to Park Avenue and 51st St., which is hard to imagine holding a brewery at ...
Arthur B. Harrison invented a cotton waterproofing that became widely used in tunnels, bridges, and foundations. The company he launched is even better known. Minwaxbegan in 1904 in Brooklyn, when Harrison developed the earliest version of "the Rolls-Royce of wood finishing products." He eventually took over the business on his own, trademarking th...
Polly-Ois a staple for many, especially famous for its mozzarella, ricotta, and string cheeses. The business helped develop American tastes for these product, being the first to introduce string cheese to the U.S. Noticing a dearth of quality cheese, Italian immigrant Giuseppe Pollio began his line from a Coney Island storefront in 1899. The name w...
You know them for crumb cakes, loaf cakes, doughnuts, and chocolate chip cookies, among more than 100 products in all. They can be found in most every grocery store in the country. Before they were a nationwide force, Entenmann's was a Brooklyn original. The company's first bakery was at 594 Rogers Avenue inProspect Lefferts Gardens (the storefront...
Bristol Myers Squibb had $45 billion in revenue in 2023, making it one of the top pharmaceutical companies in the world. Its origins are a classic New York story, as Dr. Edward Robinson Squibbformed his own laboratory in 1858 near the Brooklyn Navy Yard, where he had been employed. A brownstone at 149 Furman St. was the first Squibb lab, at least u...
More than two million people across 180 countries are members of Alcoholics Anonymous. It dates its founding to 1935 and the commiseration between Bill Wilson (Bill W.) and Bob Smith (Dr. Bob). The 1939 publication of Wilson's Alcoholics Anonymous: The Story of How More than One Hundred Men Have Recovered from Alcoholism (aka “the Big Book") gave t...
Not a huge surprise that this is a New York invention, although you might have thought it was an old country import first. In fact, the original Jewish deli was started by the Iceland Brothers on the Lower East Side in 1888. Willy Katzjoined the restaurant in 1903 and bought out the Iceland Brothers with his cousin Benny in 1910. Today you can find...
