Most notably in construction and entertainment.
In construction, many companies have closed shop or union shop contracts whereby you either have to join a union, or pay the equivalent sum of money. https://therealdeal.com/issues_articles/the-state-of-the-construction-union/
In entertainment, you must be a member of the actors guild to perform in a union theatre, and Guild members cannot perform in non-union performances.

NYC is also known for extremely an extremely strong stagehand union - don't know what it's really called - is that also closed shop? (I guess it's considered 'entertainment' also?)
