Nestled in Flushing Meadows Corona Park, among prominent locales, such as the Tennis Center, home of the US Open and Citifield, our 11-acre zoo had its prestigious opening in 1968. Home to animals native to the Americas, you and your guests will feel transported to majestic areas, such as the Great Plains, the rocky California coast, or a northeastern forest. Because this zoo attracts native wildlife, as well, it has become a highly coveted bird-watching site.

The Barrow Mansion has an eclectic, storied history, one that has evolved and remains current in Jersey City’s cultural landscape. Named for its first owner, Dr. William Barrow, who lived here with his wife, Eliza Brower, the Mansion has undergone several transformations throughout the years. Eliza’s brother-in-law, Cornelius Van Vorst, owned much of Jersey City, then largely tidal marsh, and decided to build twin mansions on the higher ground in 1837. Van Vorst aspired to develop a fashionable Manhattan suburb, and reserved one lot to build beautiful Van Vorst Park, which retains its splendor to this day. The mansion where the Van Vorst family lived was torn down in the 1920s. An important reminder of the early developments of this part of Jersey City, the aspirations of its builders, and the changing demographic patterns of the city since its creation, The Barrow Mansion is listed in the National and New Jersey Register of Historic Places.

Spaces for Events The Ace Hotel Brooklyn's highly adjustable event rooms were created to serve a never-ending borough, designed to move and breathe in tandem with the metropolis.
