During your Newark vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Skyscraper Museum
Wowed by the sheer verticality in this town? Awed by the architectural marvel that is the high-rise? You're not alone. If you'd like to learn more about the technology, culture, and sheer muscle behind it all, seek out this formerly itinerant museum, which will move into its first permanent home in 2004 in the 38-story Skidmore, Owings & Merrill tower that also houses the Ritz-Carlton New York, Battery Park. The new space comprises two galleries, one housing a permanent exhibition dedication to the evolution of Manhattan's commercial skyline, the other for changing shows.
Neue Gallerie New York
This museum is dedicated to German and Austrian art and design, with a particular focus on the early 20th century. Displayed on two floors, the collection features painting, works on paper, decorative arts, and other media from such artists as Klimt, Kokoschka, Kandinsky, Klee, and leaders of the Wiener Werkstätte decorative arts and Bauhaus applied arts movements, such as Adolf Loos and Mies van der Rohe, respectively. Once occupied by Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt III, the impeccably restored, landmark-designated 1914 Carrère & Hastings building (they built the New York Public Library as well) is worth a look in itself. Cafe Sabarsky is modeled on a Viennese cafe, so museumgoers in need of a snack break can expect a fine Linzer torte.
Museum of Sex
How many cities can claim their own Museum of Sex? This one debuted in 2002 and despite its provocative title, offers a studied, historical look at the history of sex in our culture. The museum's first exhibit, NYC Sex: How New York City Transformed Sex in America, featured displays about S&M and 19th-century brothels and videos of Times Square in its sleazy heyday of the 1970s. In 2004, Sex Among the Lotus: 2,500 Years of Chinese Erotic Obsession opened, displaying explicit imagery dating from the 2nd century B.C. Don't miss a trip through the gift shop -- definitely not your typical museum shop. How about a $1,375 snakeskin souvenir to show your friends back home? Note: Many of the displays are very graphic, so the museum may not be for everyone.
Plaza Hotel
There's no denying the glamour and recognizability of the Plaza, probably the Big Apple's most famous hotel. The 1907 landmark French Renaissance palace was refurbished by the Fairmont chain, which recently renovated the guest rooms and lobby to the tune of $60 million and added the 8,000-square-foot Plaza Spa. Halls and rooms are decorated in an opulent traditional style in soft, elegant colors, with nice touches such as pillow-top mattresses and big leather-top desks; everything is fresh and immaculately detailed. The redone park-view rooms feature PCs. Even the smallest room is a reasonable size, and the building's U shape means that every one gets a measure of fresh air and sunlight. Some suites still boast lavish, look-how-much-money-I-have red and gold decor.Good news on the dining and drinking front: The dusty old Edwardian Room has been reinvented as One CPS, a stylish American brasserie; the Palm Court still serves elegant tea; the Oyster Bar is an authentic pub straight outta the British Isles; and the Oak Bar is still one of Manhattan's most legendary cocktail spots.Tourist hordes can give the public spaces a theme-park feel and, truthfully, there are many better options in this category, but few are as legendary.Facilities: 4 restaurants; excellent full-service spa and health club with Jacuzzi and sauna; concierge (with Clefs d'Or distinction) and ticket desk; car-rental desk; business center with secretarial services; salon; 24-hr. room service; babysitting; dry cleaning/laundry service; video and CD libraries; executive-level rooms.
The Library Hotel
New York is not Las Vegas, so I'm usually wary of the hotel as high concept, but in this case, the concept really works: a hotel located 1 block from the New York Public Library, each of whose 10 guest room floors is dedicated to 1 of the 10 major categories of the Dewey Decimal System. When I visited the hotel I was appropriately booked into a "Geography and Travel" room. There I was greeted with books such as Barcelona, by Robert Hughes, and Bella Tuscany, by Frances Mayes. The most disappointing thing about all those books is that I was only staying 1 night and didn't have the chance to read any of them. Still, there was something about having them by my bed; perhaps their soothing aura comforted me. Overall, the hotel has a pleasing, informal feel. Guest rooms, which come in three categories, petite (really small), deluxe, and junior suites, feature mahogany built-ins, generous desks, and immaculate marble bathrooms; all are extremely comfortable. The Library's public spaces -- a reading room where wine and cheese and a complimentary breakfast are served daily, a writer's den with a fireplace and flat-screen television, and a rooftop terrace -- all help make The Library a welcome refuge in the heart of the city.
Thirty Thirty
Thirty Thirty is just right for bargain-hunting travelers looking for a splash of style with an affordable price tag. The building -- which formerly housed the well-known Martha Washington women's hotel and the legendary nightclub Danceteria, where Madonna got her start -- was gutted, renovated, and redone with brand-new everything.The design-conscious tone is set in the loftlike industrial-modern lobby. Rooms are mostly on the smallish side, but do the trick for those who intend to spend their days out on the town rather than holed up here. They're done in a natural palette with a creative edge -- purplish carpet, khaki bedspread, woven wallpaper -- that comes together more attractively than you might expect. Configurations are split between twin/twins (great for friends), queens, and queen/queens (great for triples, budget-minded quads, or shares that want more spreading-out room). Nice features include cushioned headboards, firm mattresses, two-line phones, nice built-in wardrobes, and spacious, nicely tiled bathrooms. A few larger units have kitchenettes, great if you're staying in town for a while, as you'll appreciate the extra room and the fridge. No room service, but delivery is available from nearby restaurants.
