The city&#8217;s current mayor, Gary James, has been in office for 19 years. His predecessors, Mayor Addonizio and Ralph T. Grant, each had their fair share of scandals. In the end, though, the city has emerged as a more progressive community. This article will discuss some of the city&#8217;s most famous residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most popular festivals in Newark is the James Moody Democracy of Jazz Festival, named for the revered saxophonist James Moody. The Endless Arts Festival takes place in Newark every fall and is sure to inspire the creative soul. The African American Heritage Festival, held in Weequahic Park, is a vibrant celebration of culture and ethnic heritage. The festival features ethnic garb and celebrities, carnival rides, and a college fair. It also features health pavilions and vendors. Another event is the Newark PrideFest, an annual festival celebrating LGBTQ culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the early 20th century, the city of 2.7 million was rife with social and economic strife. The Great Depression caused a wave of urban flight and a decline in manufacturing jobs. In the 1960s, Newark became a blighted urban center, disconnected from its middle class suburbs. The black population increased from 70,000 to more than two hundred thousand, and during his four-term administration, Gibson managed to keep the city stable. However, his controversial resignation in 2010 prompted a state investigation into the city, which indicted him on charges of conspiracy and misconduct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to being home to some of the country&#8217;s most famous residents, the city is also one of the nation&#8217;s largest and most culturally rich regions. As the third oldest city in the United States, Newark has witnessed many eras of American history &#8211; from migration to immigration, from industrial development to the unrest of the 60s. It is poised for further development as a destination city. There are several reasons to explore this fascinating city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The city is home to a world-class performing arts center, the NJPAC, and the fifth largest cathedral in North America. During the Christmas season, hundreds of candles are lit inside the cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart, which is a truly magical place to be. A visit to this beautiful cathedral is worth the effort, but be aware that the city is a busy place. Newark is home to the Newark Liberty International Airport, the first major airport serving the metropolitan area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Newark, you can find many dining establishments that cater to different tastes. In the Downtown District, you can find the popular eatery Burger Walla. This burger joint is a fusion of American comfort food with an Indian influence. The owners, Kai Campbell and Tamara Remedios, prioritize quality and exceptional customer service. They also give attention to the community, hosting poetry slams, short films, and game nights.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The political history of Newark is rife with scandal and allegations of wrongdoing.
