During your Newark vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Coney Island
Sure, Coney Island is just a shell of what it once was in its heyday in the early 20th century. But it's that shell and what remains that make it such an intriguing attraction. The almost mythical Parachute Jump, recently refurbished though long inoperable, stands as a monument to Coney Island. But this is not a dead amusement park; Astroland, home of the famed Cyclone roller coaster, has some great rides for children and adults. The best amusement of all, however, is the people-watching. Maybe because it is at the extreme edge of New York City, but Coney Island attracts more than its share of the odd, freaky, and funky. It's here where Nathan's Famous Hot Dogs holds its annual hot dog eating contest on July 4 at noon; where the wholly entertaining Mermaid Parade spoofs the old bathing beauty parades (late June); and where members of the Polar Bear Swim Club show their masochistic gusto by taking a plunge into the icy ocean on January 1. There is also the small Coney Island Museum, 1208 Surf Ave., near West 12th Street (tel. 718/372-5158), where fun exhibits detail the history of Coney Island. The best time to visit is from Memorial Day until mid-September, when the rides and amusement park are open. Bring your bathing suit and test the waters.
Staten Island Ferry
Here's New York's best freebie -- especially if you just want to glimpse the Statue of Liberty and not climb her steps. You get an enthralling hour-long excursion (round-trip) into the world's biggest harbor. This is not strictly a sightseeing ride but commuter transportation to and from Staten Island. As a result, during business hours, you'll share the boat with working stiffs reading papers and drinking coffee inside, blissfully unaware of the sights outside.You, however, should go on deck and enjoy the busy harbor traffic. The old orange-and-green boats usually have open decks along the sides or at the bow and stern; try to catch one of these boats if you can, since the newer white boats don't have decks. Grab a seat on the right side of the boat for the best view. On the way out of Manhattan, you'll pass the Statue of Liberty (the boat comes closest to Lady Liberty on the way to Staten Island), Ellis Island, and from the left side of the boat, Governor's Island; you'll see the Verrazano Narrows Bridge spanning the distance from Brooklyn to Staten Island in the distance.When the boat arrives at St. George, Staten Island, if you are required to disembark, follow the boat-loading sign on your right as you get off; you'll circle around to the next loading dock, where there's usually another boat waiting to depart for Manhattan. The skyline views are simply awesome on the return trip. Well worth the time spent.
Grand Central Terminal
Even if you're not catching one of the subway lines or Metro-North commuter trains that rumble through Grand Central Terminal, come for a visit; it's one of the most magnificent public places in the country. And even if you arrive and leave by subway, be sure to exit the station, walking a couple of blocks south, to about 40th Street, before you turn around to admire Jules-Alexis Coutan's neoclassical sculpture Transportation hovering over the south entrance, with a majestically buff Mercury, the Roman god of commerce and travel, as its central figure.The greatest visual impact comes when you enter the vast majestic main concourse. The high windows allow sunlight to penetrate the space, glinting off the half-acre Tennessee marble floor. The brass clock over the central kiosk gleams, as do the gold- and nickel-plated chandeliers piercing the side archways. The masterful sky ceiling, a brilliant greenish blue, depicts the constellations of the winter sky above New York. They're lit with 59 stars, surrounded by dazzling 24-carat gold and emitting light fed through fiber-optic cables, their intensities roughly replicating the magnitude of the actual stars as seen from Earth. Look carefully and you'll see a patch near one corner left unrestored as a reminder of the neglect once visited on this splendid overhead masterpiece. On the east end of the main concourse is a grand marble staircase.This dramatic beaux arts splendor serves as a hub of social activity as well. Excellent-quality retail shops and restaurants have taken over the mezzanine and lower levels. The highlights of the west mezzanine are Michael Jordan's-The Steak House, a gorgeous Art Deco space that allows you to dine within view of the sky ceiling as well as the gorgeously restored The Campbell Apartment , which serves cocktails. Off the main concourse at street level, there's a nice mix of specialty shops and national retailers, as well as the truly grand Grand Central Market for gourmet foods. The New York Transit Museum Store , in the shuttle passage, houses city transit-related exhibitions and a terrific gift shop that's worth a look for transit buffs. The lower dining concoursehouses a stellar food court and the famous Oyster Bar & Restaurant.The Municipal Art Society (tel. 212/935-3960; www.mas.org) offers a free walking tour of Grand Central Terminal on Wednesday at 12:30pm, which meets at the information booth on the Grand Concourse. The Grand Central Partnership (tel. 212/697-1245) runs its own free tour every Friday at 12:30pm, which meets outside the station in front of the Whitney Museum at the Altria gallery, at 42nd Street and Park Avenue. Call to confirm before you set out to meet either tour.
Habitat Hotel
Marketed as "upscale budget," this hotel features rooms dressed to appeal to travelers who are short on funds but big on style. They're well designed in a natural palette accented with black-and-white photos. Everything is better quality and more attractive than in most hotels in this price range, from the firm mattresses to the plush towels to the pedestal sinks in every room. The bathrooms are all new; choose between shared (one for every three to four rooms), private, or a semiprivate "minisuite" (two rooms sharing an adjacent bathroom -- great for friends traveling together).The only downside -- and it may be a big one for romance-seeking couples -- is the sleeping accommodations. A few queens are available (at the highest end of the price spectrum, of course), but most of the double rooms consist of a twin bed with a pullout trundle, which takes up most of the width of the narrow room when it's open. Despite that drawback, rates are attractive, especially for the rooms with shared bathroom, considering the Metropolitan Home mindset and the A-1 location. I prefer the private-bath rooms at sister hotel Thirty Thirty, because they don't have the space limitations these have, but this hotel has a more thrilling location and a more exciting vibe thanks to the popular new restaurant and bar, Opia.
Hotel Beacon
Ideally located in one of the city's most desirable neighborhoods, only a few blocks from Lincoln Center, Central Park, and the Museum of Natural History, the Beacon is one of the best values in town, especially for families. You'll get more style and state-of-the-art comforts at the Excelsior and better service at the Lucerne, but the Beacon will give you space. Every generously sized room features a kitchenette, a roomy closet, and a new marble bathroom. The Beacon won't win any personality awards, but management is conscientious and constantly renovating; rooms were freshly done in 1999 with muted florals and plush linens, and hallway redos were being completed at press time. Virtually all standard rooms feature two double beds, and they're plenty big enough to sleep a family on a budget. The large one- and two-bedroom suites are some of the best bargains in the city; each has two closets and a pullout sofa in the well-furnished living room. The two-bedrooms have a second bathroom, making them well outfitted enough to house a small army. There's no room service, but with gourmet markets such as Zabar's and Fairway nearby, cooking is an attractive alternative; plenty of restaurants are in the immediate area. A self-serve laundromat is another fab family-friendly extra.
Hotel Grand Union
This centrally located hotel is big with budget-minded international travelers. A pleasant white-on-white lobby leads to clean and spacious rooms with nice extras that are uncommon in this price category, such as hair dryers and free HBO. Bad fluorescent overhead lighting, unattractive colonial-style furniture, and an utter lack of natural light dampen the mood -- but considering the roominess, low rates, and excellent central-to-everything location, the Grand Union is a very good deal. Room no. 309, a nicely configured quad with two twins and a queen in a separate alcove, is a great bet for families. Most bathrooms have been freshly outfitted in granite or tile; ask for a newly renovated one to get the most for your money. The staff is helpful, there's a pleasant sitting room off the lobby, and an adjacent coffee shop is convenient for morning coffee or a quick burger.
