During your Newark vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Circle Line Sightseeing Cruises
A New York institution, the Circle Line is famous for its 3-hour tour around the entire 35 miles of Manhattan. This Full Island cruise passes by the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, the Brooklyn Bridge, the United Nations, Yankee Stadium, the George Washington Bridge, and more, including Manhattan's wild northern tip. The panorama is riveting, and the commentary isn't bad. The big boats are basic but fine, with lots of deck room for everybody to enjoy the view. Snacks, soft drinks, coffee, and beer are available onboard for purchase.If 3 hours is more than you or the kids can handle, go for either the 2-hour Semi-Circle or the Sunset/Harbor Lights cruise, both of which show you the highlights of the skyline. There's also a 1-hour Seaport Liberty version that sticks close to the south end of the island. But of all the tours, the kids might like The Beast best, a thrill-a-minute speedboat ride offered in summer only.In addition, a number of adults-only Live Music and DJ Cruises sail regularly from the seaport from May through September ($20-$40 per person). Depending on the night of the week, you can groove to the sounds of jazz, Latin, gospel, dance tunes, or blues as you sail along the skyline.
Trinity Church
Serving God and Mammon, this Wall Street house of worship -- with neo-Gothic flying buttresses, beautiful stained-glass windows, and vaulted ceilings -- was designed by Richard Upjohn and consecrated in 1846. At that time, its 280-foot spire dominated the skyline. Its main doors, embellished with biblical scenes, were inspired in part by Ghiberti's famed doors on Florence's Baptistery. The historic Episcopal church stood strong while office towers crumbled around it on September 11, 2001; however, an electronic organ has temporarily replaced the historic pipe organ, which was severely damaged by dust and debris. The gates to the historic church currently serve as an impromptu memorial to the victims of 9/11, with countless tokens of remembrance left by both locals and visitors alike.The church runs a brief tour daily at 2pm (a 2nd Sun tour follows the 11:15am Eucharist); groups of five or more should call tel. 212/602-0872 to reserve. There's a small museum at the end of the left aisle displaying documents (including the 1697 church charter from King William III), photographs, replicas of the Hamilton-Burr duel pistols, and other items. Surrounding the church is a churchyard whose monuments read like an American history book: a tribute to martyrs of the American Revolution, Alexander Hamilton, Robert Fulton, and many more. Lined with benches, this makes a wonderful picnic spot on warm days.Also part of Trinity Church is St. Paul's Chapel, at Broadway and Fulton Street, New York's only surviving pre-Revolutionary church, and a transition shelter for homeless men until it was transformed into a relief center after September 11; it returned to its former duties in mid-2002. Built by Thomas McBean, with a templelike portico and fluted Ionic columns supporting a massive pediment, the chapel resembles London's St. Martin-in-the-Fields. In the small graveyard, 18th- and early-19th-century notables rest in peace and modern businesspeople sit for lunch.Trinity holds its renowned Noonday Concert series of chamber music and orchestral concerts Mondays and Thursdays at 1pm; call tel. 212/602-0747 or visit the website for the full schedule, and to see if concert programming has resumed at St. Paul's.
Flatiron Building
This triangular masterpiece was one of the first skyscrapers. Its knife-blade wedge shape is the only way the building could fill the triangular property created by the intersection of Fifth Avenue and Broadway, and that happy coincidence created one of the city's most distinctive buildings. Built in 1902 and fronted with limestone and terra cotta (not iron), the Flatiron measures only 6 feet across at its narrow end. So called for its resemblance to the laundry appliance, it was originally named the Fuller Building, then later "Burnham's Folly" (since folks were certain that architect Daniel Burnham's 21-story structure would fall down). It didn't. There's no observation deck, and the building mainly houses publishing offices, but there are a few shops on the ground floor. The building's existence has served to name the neighborhood around it -- the Flatiron District, home to a bevy of smart restaurants and shops.
The Algonquin
This 1902 hotel is one of the Theater District's best-known landmarks, and a recent complete restoration returned this venerable place to its full splendor. Considering the history and comforts here, it also happens to be an excellent value.True to its tradition, the Algonquin is a very social hotel: The splendid oak-paneled lobby is the comfiest and most welcoming in the city, made for lingering over afternoon tea or an elegant cocktail. While posher than ever, the small rooms are comfortable but on the cramped side -- fine for tourists out on the town all day, but not suitable for business travelers who may need to spread out and get some work done. Extras include stocked candy jars (a nice touch). The freshened bathrooms boast short but deep soaking tubs, terry robes, and an appealing period feel. Twins are the roomiest doubles. For the ultimate New York vibe, opt for one of the surprisingly affordable literary-themed suites.Meals are served in the atmospheric Round Table Room, while the fabulous Oak Room is one of the city's top cabaret rooms, featuring such esteemed talents as Andrea Marcovicci and Julie Wilson. The publike Blue Bar is home to a rotating collection of Hirschfeld drawings that's well worth a browse.
Excelsior Hotel
The recently renovated, newly elegant Excelsior almost gives the Lucerne a run for its money. Everything is fresh throughout the hotel, from the richly wood-paneled lobby to the supremely comfy guest rooms to the small but state-of-the-art exercise room. The chic residential location is across from the Museum of Natural History and just steps from Central Park. However, the staff doesn't quite live up to the Lucerne's impeccable example.Freshly done in an attractive traditional style, the guest rooms boast high-quality furnishings, commodious closets, two-line phones, thick terry bathrobes, a work desk, free bottled water, and full-length dressing mirrors (a nice touch). The pretty new bathrooms are most impressive. The two-bedded rooms are large enough to accommodate budget-minded families (a few even have two queens), and suites feature pullout sofas and pants presses. The sunny museum-facing rooms are only worth the extra dough if a park view is really important to you, as all rooms are relatively bright and quiet. Housekeeping is impeccable throughout the hotel. On the second floor is a gorgeous library-style lounge with working fireplace, books, games, gorgeous leather seating, writing desks, and a large flat-screen TV with VCR and DVD player. All in all, a good midprice choice.
Holiday Inn Wall Street
This is one of Lower Manhattan's most technologically advanced hotels. The comfortable queen-bedded rooms are stocked with everything an executive might need, including an 8-foot L-shaped workstation with desk-level inputs, dual-line portable phones, and the kind of office supplies you never bring but always need, such as paper clips and tape. About half of the rooms have PCs with Microsoft Word and Office applications and a CD drive. The top floor is dedicated to special SMART rooms, which feature Toshiba Satellite laptop computers (with carrying case), fax/printer/copiers, and other upgraded amenities, plus buffet breakfast. Room decor is chain standard all the way, but fresh and perfectly comfortable; an easy chair and ottoman expands seating options. Management is always staying on the cutting edge with such techno-toys as a "Pocket Concierge" plug-in in the lobby that allows you to download local information to your PDA; an ATM-style machine for one-touch credit card check-in (similar to a self-serve gas pump); and cellular connection services that allow you to forward your room calls to your cellphone. The staff prides itself on meeting the needs of its bullish guests, so expect to be well cared for.In room: A/C, TV w/pay movies, Internet access, and Nintendo, standard dataport and high-speed connectivity, minibar, coffeemaker, hair dryer, iron, safe, CD player.
