During your Newark vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:

Ellis Island
One of New York's most moving sights, the restored Ellis Island opened in 1990, slightly north of Liberty Island. Roughly 40% of Americans (myself included) can trace their heritage back to an ancestor who came through here. For the 62 years when it was America's main entry point for immigrants (1892-1954), Ellis Island processed some 12 million people. The greeting was often brusque -- especially in the early years of the century, until 1924, when as many as 12,000 came through in a single day. The statistics can be overwhelming, but the Immigration Museum skillfully relates the story of Ellis Island and immigration in America by placing the emphasis on personal experience.It's difficult to leave the museum unmoved. Today you enter the Main Building's baggage room, just as the immigrants did, and then climb the stairs to the Registry Room, with its dramatic vaulted tiled ceiling, where millions waited anxiously for medical and legal processing. A step-by-step account of the immigrants' voyage is detailed in the exhibit, with haunting photos and touching oral histories. What might be the most poignant exhibit is Treasures from Home, 1,000 objects and photos donated by descendants of immigrants, including family heirlooms, religious articles, and rare clothing and jewelry. Outside, the American Immigrant Wall of Honor commemorates the names of more than 500,000 immigrants and their families, from Myles Standish and George Washington's great-grandfather to the forefathers of John F. Kennedy, Jay Leno, and Barbra Streisand. You can even research your own family's history at the interactive American Family Immigration History Center. You might also make time to see the award-winning short film Island of Hope, Island of Tears, which plays on a continuous loop in two theaters. Short live theatrical performances depicting the immigrant experience are also often part of the day's events.Touring tips: Ferries run daily to Ellis Island and Liberty Island from Battery Park and Liberty State Park at frequent intervals; see the Statue of Liberty listing for details.

World Trade Center site (Ground Zero)
The World Trade Center dominated lower Manhattan. The record-breaking complex occupied 16 acres, and its 12 million square feet of rentable office space housed more than 350 firms and organizations. About 50,000 people worked in its precincts, and some 70,000 others (tourists and businesspeople) visited each day. The vast complex included, in addition to two 110-story towers -- one of which awarded visitors with breathtaking views from the Top of the World observation deck, more than 1,350 feet in the air -- five additional buildings (including a Marriott hotel), a plaza the size of four football fields, rich with outdoor sculpture, a vast underground shopping mall with retailers running the gamut from Radio Shack to Coach, and a full slate of restaurants, including the spectacular Windows on the World, the city's ultimate special-occasion restaurant.Then the first plane hit the north tower, Tower 1, at 8:45am on Tuesday, September 11, 2001. By 10:30am, it was all gone, along with nearly 3,000 innocent victims.A viewing wall on the Church Street side of the now barren site was erected; on that "Wall of Heroes" are the names of those who lost their lives that day along with the history of the site, including photos of the construction of the World Trade Center in the late 1960s and how, after it opened in 1972, it changed the New York skyline and downtown. A walk along the Wall of Heroes remains a painfully moving experience.After much discussion, designer Daniel Libeskind's Freedom Tower proposal was chosen to be built eventually on the former WTC site. Also, in an open competition that received 5,000 entries from over 63 nations and 49 states, a design for a memorial commemorating the tragic events of 9/11 was chosen. The winner, titled Reflecting Absence, is two large voids, with pools cascading 30 feet into footprints of the Twin Towers, and the names of the victims listed around the pools. But it will be years before either the Tower or the Memorial will be unveiled.Additionally, the gates of Trinity Church will continue to serve as an impromptu memorial, brimming with tokens of remembrance and blessing left by visitors from around the world.

Brooklyn Bridge
Its Gothic-inspired stone pylons and intricate steel-cable webs have moved poets like Walt Whitman and Hart Crane to sing the praises of this great span, the first to cross the East River and connect Manhattan to Brooklyn. Begun in 1867 and ultimately completed in 1883, the beautiful Brooklyn Bridge is now the city's best-known symbol of the age of growth that seized the city during the late 19th century. Walk across the bridge and imagine the awe that New Yorkers of that age felt at seeing two boroughs joined by this monumental span. It's still astounding.Walking the Bridge: Walking the Brooklyn Bridge is one of my all-time favorite New York activities, although there's no doubt that the Lower Manhattan views from the bridge now have a painful resonance as well as a joyous spirit. A wide wood-plank pedestrian walkway is elevated above the traffic, making it a relatively peaceful, and popular, walk. It's a great vantage point from which to contemplate the New York skyline and the East River.There's a sidewalk entrance on Park Row, just across from City Hall Park (take the 4, 5, or 6 train to Brooklyn Bridge/City Hall). But why do this walk away from Manhattan, toward the far less impressive Brooklyn skyline? Instead, for Manhattan skyline views, take an A or C train to High Street, one stop into Brooklyn. From there, you'll be on the bridge in no time: Come above ground, then walk through the little park to Cadman Plaza East and head downslope (left) to the stairwell that will take you up to the footpath. (Following Prospect Place under the bridge, turning right onto Cadman Plaza E., will also take you directly to the stairwell.) It's a 20- to 40-minute stroll over the bridge to Manhattan, depending on your pace, the amount of foot traffic, and the number of stops you make to behold the spectacular views (there are benches along the way). The footpath will deposit you right at City Hall Park.Tasty tips: The perfect complement to your stroll over the Brooklyn Bridge is a stop for pizza at Grimaldi's, followed by delicious homemade ice cream at the Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory (tel. 718/246-3963), located at the Fulton Ferry Fire Boat House on the river and in the shadow of the bridge. The pizza and ice cream will fortify you for your return stroll into Manhattan.

Make your reservations for discount hotel rooms in the Newark area, including:

The Kimberly
Surprisingly good rates on suites here mean that you could be standing on your private balcony overlooking Manhattan for a lot less than you'd pay for a cell-like room in many other Midtown hotels. Most New Yorkers don't have it this good: These are full apartments with dining areas; living rooms with Oriental rugs; full-size, fully equipped kitchens complete with china and cookware; marble bathrooms; tons of closet space; and private unfurnished balconies (in all but eight suites) -- it's all part of the package. The executive suites have a larger living space, but the standard one-bedrooms are just fine for most. The two-bedroom suites each have two bathrooms; you can choose between a configuration that adjoins the bedrooms or puts them at opposite ends of the apartment (great for couples traveling together). The 21 regular rooms are handsome and comfortable, too, with extra-nice bathrooms with deep tubs. Additional amenities include two-line phones and plush robes. The hotel may not be the most stylish place in town, but it's done in an attractive traditional style that's cozy and comfortable, and everything is in very good condition.A unique perk is complimentary boarding of a 75-foot yacht for a 3-hour sunset cruise (weekends May-Oct, weather permitting).Facilities: 2 restaurants; 2 bars; free access to fabulous New York Health & Racquet Club, with pool, classes, racquetball courts, and indoor golf; concierge; room service (6am-11pm); in-room massage; babysitting; dry cleaning/laundry service; executive-level rooms.

Washington Square Hotel
Popular with a young international crowd, this affordable hotel sits behind a pretty facade facing Washington Square Park (historically Henry James territory, now the heart of New York University) in the heart of Greenwich Village. The lobby was recently renovated and is now a pleasant place for tea in the afternoon and cocktails in the evening. The rooms are tiny, but pleasant. Each comes with a firm bed, a private bathroom, and a small closet with a pint-size safe. It's worth paying a few extra dollars for a south-facing room on a high floor, since others can be a bit dark. Bathrooms were also renovated, with the addition of granite counters; high-speed Internet access is in all of the rooms. On-site is a very good restaurant and lounge, North Square Lounge, which even draws locals with its stylish design, well-priced cocktails and international bistro fare, and Sunday jazz brunch.

Skyline Hotel
This nice, newly renovated motor hotel offers predictable comforts and some uncommon extras -- inexpensive storage parking ($8 per day) and a lovely indoor pool -- that make it a very good value. A pleasant lobby leads to motel-standard rooms that were, thankfully, recently renovated, and are bigger than most in this price range. There are two room categories: standard, with two twin beds, and deluxe, with either a king bed with sofa or a queen bed. The deluxe with king and sofa is best for families. They boast decent-size closets, small work desks (in most), and double-paned windows that open to let fresh air in, and shut out a surprising amount of street noise when closed. Some rooms have brand-new bathrooms, but the older ones are still fine. Everything is very well kept. Another plus for the family is the pool, which has a nicely tiled deck and plush deck chairs, but it's only open limited hours, so call ahead if it matters.
