Rosenfeld and Marina Harrison guide you on a tour of inspiring, informative, and aesthetically intriguing architectural treasures in and around the New York area. Early colonial saltboxes, as-yet-unfinished contemporary structures on college campuses, nineteenth-century follies, Gilded Age palaces, lighthouses, windmills, romantic ruins-- the pages of this delightful book, filled with adventures, treat readers to sites within approximately two hours' driving time from New York City. With book in hand readers will marvel at college campuses, small villages, planned and utopian communities, National Historic Sites, castles and forts, churches and temples of architectural interest, and even a Buddhist monastery, all in Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, the eastern edge of Pennsylvania, and Delaware. By including descriptions of architectural styles, suggestions for special adventures, and lists of jaunts arranged by architect or designer, architectural style, and particular types of sites, Rosenfeld and Harrison help make day trips even more enjoyable. Whether explorers or armchair adventurers, readers of all ages will find something that captures their interest in the nearly one hundred sites and forty photos included in Architecture Walks.

All of the hotels and restaurants are listed here.a Is there anyone who hasnOCOt been to, or at least heard of, the Jersey Shore? Famous as the birthplace of the boardwalk, cherished as a relaxing getaway for young and old alike, and celebrated for its beautiful beaches, salt-tinged ocean breezes, and gorgeous vistas, the Jersey Shore is a place where memories are made and dreams are born (and sometimes even come true). Since it is such a vacationerOCOs paradise, the Atlantic coast has the most to do. We start with the northernmost Shore county, Monmouth, and work straight down the coast to Cape May. Although these counties revolve around the ocean and summertime, look closer; they have a lot more to offer than just the beach and boardwalk. Sure, the beaches are 127 miles of pure enjoyment, but there are flea markets, historic sites, and some unusual attractions, such as a zoo for sick and injured animals. So if you donOCOt swim, dislike seagulls, and have a natural aversion to sand, fear not. You just have to look around, and youOCOll discover choices galore at the Jersey Shore."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jersey Shore, our most treasured asset, the envy of forty-nine other states, comes alive in this new book by the reporter and writer who knows New Jersey—and the Jersey Shore—best. Every conceivable topic—where to eat, where to stay, landmarks and attractions, what to do with the kids—is covered with the kind of inside information you just won’t find on tourism web sites or Facebook. All one hundred-plus Shore towns are included, from Sandy Hook to Cape May. There are hundreds of restaurant listings and recommendations. The book also contains engaging profiles and vignettes of the people and places that give the Shore its special character and charm. A throwback five-and-dime store on Long Beach Island. Banner pilots. Birders. Baby parades. And more. You want lists and rankings? The book is full of them—twenty best Shore towns, twenty-one secret spots down the Shore, twenty essential Jersey Shore experiences, fifty things we bet you didn’t know about the Shore, and so on. The book is the next best thing to being at the Shore; actually, it may be better than being there (think of those epic traffic jams on the Parkway, and all the money you’ll save on tolls, beach fees, and bad boardwalk pizza).
