During your Newark vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Studio Museum in Harlem
This small but lovely museum is devoted to presenting 19th- and 20th-century African-American art as well as 20th-century African and Caribbean art and traditional African art and artifacts. Rotating exhibitions are a big part of the museum's focus, such as Smithsonian African-American Photography: The First 100 Years, 1842-1942; the silk-screens and lithographs of Jacob Lawrence; and an annual exhibition of works by emerging artists as part of its Artists-in-Residence program. There's also a small sculpture garden, a good gift shop, and a full calendar of special events.
Bryant Park
Another success story in the push for urban redevelopment, Bryant Park is the latest incarnation of a 4-acre site that was, at various times in its history, a graveyard and a reservoir. Named for poet and New York Evening Post editor William Cullen Bryant (look for his statue on the east end), the park actually rests atop the New York Public Library's many miles of underground stacks. Another statue is also notable: a squat and evocative stone portrait of Gertrude Stein, one of the few outdoor sculptures of women in the city.This simple green swath, just east of Times Square, is welcome relief from Midtown's concrete, taxi-choked jungle, and good weather attracts brown-baggers from neighboring office buildings. Just behind the library is Bryant Park Grill (tel. 212/840-6500), a gorgeous, airy bistro with spectacular views but merely decent New American food. Still, brunch is a good bet, and the grill's two summer alfresco restaurants -- The Terrace, on the Grill's roof, and the casual Cafe, with small tables beneath a canopy of trees -- are extremely pleasant on a nice day.In the summer of 2002, Le Carrousel opened -- a carousel created to complement the park's French classical style. It's not as big as the Central Park Carrousel, but utterly charming, with 14 different animals that revolve to the sounds of French cabaret music. Le Carrousel is open all year, weather permitting, 11am to 7pm, and costs $1.50.Additionally, the park plays host to New York's Seventh on Sixth fashion shows, set up in billowy white tents (open to the trade only) in the spring and fall.
New York City Fire Museum
Housed in a real three-story 1904 firehouse, the former quarters of FDNY Engine Co. 30, this museum houses one of the country's most extensive collections of fire-service memorabilia from the 18th century to the present. It is also the best place to pay tribute to the 343 heroic firefighters who lost their lives just blocks away in the World Trade Center disaster. Expect ongoing changing exhibits relating to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attack. Other displays range from vintage fire marks to firetrucks (including the last-known example of a 1921 pumper) to the gear and tools of modern firefighters. Also look for leather hoses, fireboats, and Currier & Ives prints, plus a new exhibit on fire safety and burn prevention especially geared to families. Best of all, real firefighters are almost always on hand to share stories and fire-safety information with kids. The retail store sells authorized FDNY logo wear and souvenirs. Call ahead for details on scheduling a guided tour.
Swissôtel New York, The Drake
The Drake exemplifies classic New York grace, yet merges effortlessly and successfully with 21st-century technology. This regal hotel has presided over Park Avenue since 1929. The grand lobby sets the tone immediately with a fresh, contemporary look blending warm woods, sepia-hued parchment sconces, blown Murano glass vases, and a massive spray of fresh blossoms. Spacious and high-ceilinged, the guest rooms blend classic Regency and contemporary styles with boldness; lines are strong, textures are rich, colors are vibrant. Every room boasts an extra-large work desk, a club chair or other comfy seating area, and thoughtful touches such as plush robes and an umbrella in the closet for rainy days. The large suites also feature a wet bar with minifridge; some also have entertainment centers, terraces, or other special features.Service is assured and gracious throughout your stay, and the facilities are first-rate. Stylish Q56 deserves attention in its own right thanks to a beautifully designed interior and a stellar globe-trotting menu; it's well worth a night out even if you don't stay in the hotel. Parisian chocolatier Fauchon operates a large, elegant boutique featuring a sweet tea salon and sparkling glass cases displaying a gorgeous array of chocolates and sweet treats flown in daily.
The Regency
Mirroring the elegance of Park Avenue and with its enviable location close to Central Park, Bloomingdale's, and the white-gloved shops of Madison Avenue, the Regency has long been a haven for celebrities and those who aspire to celebrity status. On one of my visits to the hotel, I saw New York Yankee outfielder Hideki Matsui amble through the glittering, marble-laden lobby. But even if you aren't on the cover of a magazine, a stay at the Regency might make you feel like a star. The guest rooms are all huge, featuring a king bed or two doubles, a large marble writing desk with an ergonomic chair, and a small eating table. The bathrooms, though not enormous, are equipped with terrycloth robes and a small television. Suites are typically grandiose, ranging from the 450-square-foot Executive, with two bathrooms and French doors, to the Grand Suite, with two bedrooms and two marble bathrooms. Despite its elegance, the Regency is a surprisingly good choice for kids; children under 18 stay free when sharing a room with their parents; rollaway beds are an additional $25 for the stay. Even pets get the special treatment, with the hotel providing services such as place mats with food and water bowls and a room service menu for pets. Complimentary homemade hot chocolate is served in the lobby in the winter months, replaced by lemonade in the summer. The hotel's restaurant, 540 Park Avenue, is one of the great power breakfast spots in the city, while Feinstein's at The Regency, is considered the standard when it comes to cabaret .
The Benjamin
From the retro sign and clock on Lexington Avenue to the high-ceilinged marble lobby, when you enter The Benjamin, it's as if you've suddenly stepped into the jazz era of New York of the 1920s. But once you get to your spacious room and notice the numerous high-tech amenities, such as Bose Wave radios, Internet browsers and video games for the TVs, high-speed Internet access, fax machines, ergonomic chairs and moveable workstation, you will know you are most definitely in the 21st century. Many of the amenities are geared toward business travelers, but why should they be the only ones to experience all this comfort and luxury? All rooms are airy, but the deluxe studios and one-bedroom suites are extra large. There are even a few one-bedroom suites with terraces. How many hotels can claim a "sleep concierge" or guarantee a good night's sleep? And don't forget the pillow menu featuring 11 options, including buckwheat and Swedish Memory, in which foam designed by NASA reacts to your body temperature. I chose the standard down pillow and did not have to exercise the guarantee. If you are a light sleeper, however, book a room off Lexington Avenue, which can get very busy most weeknights and mornings. Bathrooms feature Frette robes, TV speakers, and water pressure from the shower head strong enough to make you think you've just experienced a deep-tissue massage. The hotel also features a good fitness center and the new Woodstock Spa and Wellness Center.In room: A/C, TV w/pay movies, video games, and Internet access, fax/copier/printer, dataport and high-speed connectivity, kitchenette, minibar, coffeemaker, laptop-size safe, microwave, china.
