Neon lights blaze above streets where jazz legends once vanished and courtroom drama shook the city’s core. Beneath Downtown Newark’s high-rises, secrets thrum just out of sight.

This self-guided audio tour slips you past the obvious, revealing buried stories at icons like the Prudential Center and NJPAC, plus corners history tried to hide. Every stop unlocks another layer, from riot flashpoints to law school secrets.

Move through buzzing plazas and shadowed alleyways. Sense the tension, ambition, and reinvention that shaped these streets. Every turn redraws what you thought you knew about Newark.

Begin now and let Newark’s hidden heart come alive beneath your feet.
