		<description><![CDATA[From the Wall Street Journal: Mark Zuckerberg, the 26-year-old founder and chief executive of Facebook Inc., plans to announce a donation of up to $100 million to the Newark schools this week, in a bold bid to improve one of the country&#8217;s worst performing public school systems. Potentially to be matched by funds raised by [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Office parties—when the staff lets their hair down, the boss awkwardly pretends to be &#8220;one of the gang&#8221;, and at least one person gets embarrassingly drunk—are a staple of the corporate world. These days, such events are limp, pathetic affairs, attended with the same enthusiasm as your average dental cleaning. Last week, during one of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The April, 1915 issue of The School-Arts Magazine (&#8220;For Those Interested in Drawing &#38; Handicraft&#8221;) ran a flowery piece, &#8220;Something Beautiful&#8221;, extolling the &#8220;rhythmic and refined&#8221; qualities of the Ridge Street School and Newark Normal School. Preceding the glowing praise are quotes from Ralph Adams Cram, &#8220;architect of some of the finest Gothic churches in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Guilbert &#38; Betelle designed a number of banks for Newark in the early 1920s. They are frustratingly difficult to track down, because few reveal their addresses, or are probably drastically altered in appearance. Well this one, the United States Savings Bank on Broad Street, still exists. I&#8217;ve unknowingly walked past it dozens of times, because [...]]]></description>

Both were illuminating and entertaining. If you’re interested to learn more about the Weequahic neighborhood, now is your chance. Jeff Bennet [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Newark wears its history in plain sight. An astoundingly diverse collection of buildings, evocative street names and a rich narrative dating back over 300 years lay the city bare to those who even casually glance. James Betelle spent his 20 most productive years there, so it naturally comprises a good chunk of my research. I’ve [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve recently had the privilege of corresponding with members of the Guilbert family, who have shown a keen interest in my research. Given the circumstances [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week I headed down to Newark to learn more about James Betelle&#8217;s tragically short-lived partner, Ernest F. Guilbert. I scored quickly by finding Guilbert&#8217;s obituary at the library, which painted a pretty good portrait of his life and career. With that done, I was off to chase down a number of schools I hadn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Newark in the 1910s was a city one would hardly recognize today. Driven by an influx of money and opportunity, it was a thriving commercial and industrial port. A city on the rise needs grand structures, and certainly nothing makes a statement that a city has arrived than having a stately, luxurious hotel. Newark decided [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Guilbert &#38; Betelle designed the 1927 Essex County Hall of Records, in Newark, as a complement to the existing 1902 Court House by Cass Gilbert (to which they did the massive remodeling described in this article). Interestingly, James Betelle worked for Gilbert about that time; it&#8217;s possible he was involved in its construction as well. [...]]]></description>
