During your Newark vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Whitney Museum of American Art
What is arguably the finest collection of 20th-century American art in the world belongs to the Whitney thanks to the efforts of Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney. A sculptor herself, Whitney organized exhibitions by American artists shunned by traditional academies, assembled a sizable personal collection, and founded the museum in 1930 in Greenwich Village.Today's museum is an imposing presence on Madison Avenue -- an inverted three-tiered pyramid of concrete and gray granite with seven seemingly random windows designed by Marcel Breuer, a leader of the Bauhaus movement. The rotating permanent collection consists of an intelligent selection of major works by Edward Hopper, George Bellows, Georgia O'Keeffe, Roy Lichtenstein, Jasper Johns, and other significant artists. A pleasing second-floor exhibit space is devoted exclusively to works from its permanent collection from 1900 to 1950, while the rest of the space is dedicated to rotating exhibits.Shows are usually all well curated and more edgy than what you'd see at the MoMA or the Guggenheim (though not as left-of-mainstream as what you'll find at the New Museum). Topics range from topical surveys, such as American Art in the Age of Technology and The Warhol Look: Glamour Style Fashion to in-depth retrospectives of famous or lesser-known movements (such as Fluxus, the movement that spawned Yoko Ono, among others) and artists (Mark Rothko, Keith Haring, Duane Hanson, Bob Thompson). Free gallery tours are offered daily, and music, screenings, and lectures fill the calendar. The Whitney is also notable for having the best museum restaurant in town: Sarabeth's at the Whitney, worth a visit in its own right.
Brooklyn Tabernacle
Under the direction of passionate orator Pastor Jim Cymbala and his choral-director wife, Carol, this nondenominational Christian revival church has grown into one of the largest -- with a congregation of nearly 10,000 from all walks of city life -- and most renowned inner-city churches in the nation. Folks come from all over the world to see the 275-voice, four-time Grammy Award-winning Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir, one of the nation's most celebrated gospel choirs.Brooklyn Tabernacle relocated from Flatbush Avenue to 392 Fulton St., on Fulton Mall in the heart of downtown Brooklyn, in mid-2002. The gloriously renovated 1918 building is the fourth-largest theatrical space in the five boroughs, and seats nearly 4,000 for each service. Still, come early for a prime seat, especially when the choir sings (at the noon and 4pm Sun services).
Abyssinian Baptist Church
The most famous of Harlem's more than 400 houses of worship is this Baptist church, founded downtown in 1808 by African-American and Ethiopian merchants. It was moved uptown to Harlem back in the 1920s by Adam Clayton Powell Sr., who built it into the largest Protestant congregation -- white or black -- in America. His son, Adam Clayton Powell Jr. (for whom the adjoining boulevard was named), carried on his tradition, and also became the first-ever black U.S. congressman. Abyssinian is now the domain of the fiery, activist-minded Rev. Calvin O. Butts, whom the chamber of commerce has declared a "Living Treasure." The Sunday morning services -- at 9 and 11am -- offer a wonderful opportunity to experience the Harlem gospel tradition.
The Melrose Hotel
This was once the most famous hotel in New York -- for women only and known as The Barbizon. It first admitted men in 1981, and in 2002, after a $40 million renovation, became the Melrose Hotel. The Barbizon was the first stop in New York for professional, educated women, including Joan Crawford, Grace Kelly, and Candice Bergen. Designed as an eclectic mix of Italian renaissance, Gothic, and Islamic architecture, this lovely old building, with its twin deco towers, stands out majestically amongst the glass and steel of its Upper East Side location. From a dorm-size petite room to a stately, sprawling tower suite, the range of rooms and the corresponding rates can also be considered eclectic. You can spend as little as $150 a night or as much as $1,700. All rooms, no matter the size, are well kept, offer plenty of light, and are equipped with all the basic amenities. Standard and superior rooms come with small workstations, while the magnificent (and very expensive) tower suites come with terraces, some as large as 500 square feet. There is a very good Equinox Fitness Club and Spa, with a nearly 60-foot-long pool on the premises; inexplicably, guests must pay an $18 fee daily to use it. The Library Bar in the lobby serves light snacks throughout the day and the hotel has a "Sign and Dine" program with some highly rated local restaurants. A few blocks from Bloomingdale's, Madison Avenue, and Central Park, The Melrose is a nice midrange alternative to other more pricey hotels in the area.
Hotel Plaza Athénée
This hideaway in New York's toniest neighborhood (the stretch of Madison Ave. in the 60s), is a mirror image of that elevated social strata; it's elegant, luxurious, and oozing with sophistication. With antique furniture, hand-painted murals, and the Italian marble floor that adorns the exquisite lobby, the Plaza Athénée has a distinctly European feel. And in that tradition, service here is as good as it gets, with personalized check-in and attentive staff at every turn.The rooms, which come in a variety of shapes and sizes, are all high-ceilinged and spacious; entrance foyers give them a real residential feel. The rooms are designed in rich fabrics and warm colors that help set a tone that makes you want to lounge in your room longer than you should. The suites have so much closet space it made this New Yorker, used to miniscule apartment closets, very envious. All of the suites have chaises, which you don't see too often in New York hotels, and a few have terraces large enough to dine out on. The Portuguese marble bathrooms are outfitted with thick robes made exclusively for the hotel; put one on and you might never want to take it off. The lush lounge is appropriately called Bar Seine and is a welcome spot for a pre-dinner cocktail. The restaurant, Arabelle, receives high praise for its weekend brunch. Though not the most technologically advanced hotel -- the televisions are old and there are no VCRs or DVD players -- you don't come to the Plaza Athénée for high tech, you come to escape it.
The Mark
Just a block separates the Mark from its chief hotel rival (the Carlyle) on that coveted stretch of Upper East Side real estate that comprises the boutiques of Madison Avenue and Museum Mile. Both feature impeccable service and comfort, but the Carlyle is more of a white-gloved grande dame, while the Mark prides itself on its motto, "no jacket, no tie, no attitude." Don't let that motto fool you, however, into thinking the Mark is one of those ultra-trendy, shallowly hip downtown hotels; it is surprisingly and happily quite traditional. All the rooms are spacious, with high ceilings, and decorated in soft tones that give them a warm, homey feel. All have fax machines and most have kitchenettes. The suites vary in size and some have terraces, dining areas, and French doors. The bathrooms on the top floors have been newly renovated in marble, but I prefer the look of the familiar white and black tile bathrooms on the lower floors.Off the small lobby is the intimate, cozy, and very popular Mark's Bar, while Mark's restaurant, also off the lobby, is an underrated pleasure. On Monday's, sommelier Richard Dean conducts wine-class dinners. Afternoon tea at the Mark is a treat hosted by Tea Master Ringo Lo, who changes the tea menu daily, creating some amazingly exotic Asian-influenced concoctions in the process.
