Newark's rapid growth began in the early 1800s, much of it due to a Massachusetts transplant named Seth Boyden. He came to Newark in 1815, and immediately began a torrent of improvements to leather manufacture, culminating in the process for making patent leather. This led to Newark's manufacturing nearly 90% of the nation's leather by 1870. In 1824, Boyden, bored with leather, found a way to produce malleable iron. Newark also prospered by the construction of the Morris Canal in 1831.
The New Jersey Performing Arts Center, opened in the downtown area in 1997. It has brought some 1.6 million people to Newark.

NJPAC also presents a diverse group of visiting artists such as Itzhak Perlman, Sarah Brightman, Sting, 'N Sync, Lauryn Hill.
The city has built a baseball stadium (Riverfront Stadium) for the Newark Bears, the city's minor league team. In 2007, the Prudential Center (nicknamed, "The Rock") opened for the New Jersey Devils.
