Though it could be anywhere, not just New York--in orthodox Judaism
everything comes to a complete stop for Shabbos, which begins at sundown on
Friday and ends with sundown on Saturday.  In the case of B&H and Adorama,
both businesses run by orthodox Jews, they close earlier on Friday to give
their employees a chance to make it home in time for Shabbos.  Also, in
orthodox Judaism you aren't supposed to drive, take trains, or carry money
during Shabbos, making it all the more important for their employees to get
home in time.
