NYC Carnegie Deli Gone, But Lives On In Vegas


It first opened 80 years ago as President Franklin D. Roosevelt started his second term. Now the landmark eatery next to Carnegie Hall is no more.

However, the tradition, name and family ownership live on at the Mirage Resort on the Strip in Las Vegas. Of course, the delicious corned beef or pastrami on rye sandwiches are a bit more expensive than they were in 1937.

If a Vegas visit is in your upcoming plans and you yearn for some of the traditional Carnegie delicacies, check out the info at www.mirage.com/en/restaurants/carnegie-delicatessen

Washington DC: Founding Father Tribute Open Again PDF Print E-mail


The Washington Monument has been a tourist favorite for more than a century. The 555-foot obelisk in the US capital reopened recently after nearly three years of renovation and repairs to the 1884 structure.

The improved monument facility features a new blast-proof, glass and steel security screening and a new elevator system. The renovations followed another long period of repair after a 2011 magnitude 5.8 earthquake caused extensive damage to the structure. If your tourist wanderings include the nation’s capital city, spend some time at the towering tribute to our first president.
