The Mezzanine

AT THE NATIONAL NEWARK BUILDING

The Mezzanine at National Newark Building is a ballroom rich in history and stature. Dating back to 1931, this 34-story neoclassical landmark was the tallest building in Newark until 1989. It was noted as one of the first skyscrapers around. Soon after, a 55 million dollar renovation merged its original Art Deco flair with modern upgrades and amenities.

The ballroom opens up to soaring ceilings, windows with spectacular views, gilded accents, imported marble flooring, and crystal and brass to accentuate the ambiance of your special event.
