About Newark

Often playing second fiddle to New York City, Newark is city that has come to offer so much more than its reputation affords. An amazing mix of cultures and a history stemming from Colonial times come together to shape this city, the largest in New Jersey and the third oldest of major U.S. cities. Although known as a center of industry and business, several parks help Newark stay true to the Garden State nickname, and culture breaks through at the many museums, learning centers and the New Jersey Performing Arts Center. Considered a gateway to Manhattan, Newark has become a destination in its own right thanks to the local jazz, ethnic districts and restaurants, and deep-rooted history that make this city unique.

Did you know?

Newark started out in 1665 as a Puritan church-state, with just two streets and about 200 people. It is now the largest city in New Jersey, the 64th largest city in the US, and a major land, sea and air transportation hub. Not only that, but it is the third oldest city in the country - only Boston and New York City are older.
