The Valley Hospital is among the top 15 hospitals in the nation for heart surgery.* And we’re only getting better. We are the only New Jersey hospital affiliated with the #1 ranked heart care program in the nation — Cleveland Clinic’s Heart & Vascular Institute.** Here’s Steve’s story.

In his late 50s, Steve wanted the most out of life. When he wasn’t busy with advanced engineering classes, he was playing ice hockey.

But simple tasks were taking his breath away and his active life was quickly slowing down.

Steve’s instincts told him something was wrong. Doctors discovered an irregular heartbeat, a condition called atrial fibrillation — the same diagnosis that took his father.

See how Steve’s instincts saved his life at MyStory.ValleyHealth.com. * Data from The Society of Thoracic Surgeons as published by Consumer Reports ** U.S. News & World Report’s Best Hospitals. Copyright © 2015 U.S. News & World Report, L.P.

When it’s time for your regular mammogram, we’ll be waiting for you. But you won’t be waiting for us. That’s because our Leslie Simon Breast Care and Cytodiagnosis Center now provides mammography results and many follow-up tests during the same visit.

That means less waiting, less wondering, less worrying.

Your go-to source

Do you find yourself going back to the same places over and over again? I often do. It’s like being on autopilot.

But how to break the cycle? I like to find a source of information to refer to when you’re on the hunt for a new destination, whether it’s a restaurant or a park.

That’s why I love this annual Guide issue—with 20 categories of services and destinations, surely you’ll discover new places to try and rediscover forgotten favorites across Bergen County. Who knows— the soothing spa, lively nightclub or perfect cup of coffee you’ve been looking for may be listed right here in this magazine!

Whether you’re new to the county or a longtime resident, the lists in this guide will serve as a practical resource for ideas on where to go and what to do. Bergen County has everything you could want, and more: five-star cuisine, fabulous shops, indoor and outdoor activities, and much more. We’ve got the arts covered, too. Check out our listings of museums, theaters and concert halls.

Of course, there’s more to this issue than just lists. Find fun facts about Bergen County on page 26, then head to page 30 for a sampling of homes currently on the market. Finally, see if you recognize the building pictured on page 96.

If you were looking for a source for everything Bergen County has to offer, you’ve found it. Enjoy!

What’s in a name?

Harrowing highway

Route 9W in Bergen County wasn’t always on the west side of the Palisades Interstate Parkway. The road was originally built along the Palisades cliffs but was moved when the parkway was built in 1950s. A portion of Old Route 9W still exists at the State Line Lookout in Alpine.

keep track on your walk

Many joggers, dog walkers and bicyclists use trails once occupied by trolley tracks. The North Jersey Rapid Transit system ran from its southernmost point in Elmwood Park (formerly East Paterson) through Ridgewood to Mahwah.

The NJRT’s right-of-way was transformed into walking paths in towns like Allendale, Ho-Ho-Kus and Waldwick.

9,000

Though the origins of Bergen’s name can be debated, it is often attributed to the Dutch word meaning “hill” or “place of safety.”

The approximate number of acres in Bergen County’s park system.

For the birds Native to South America, monk parakeets can also be found in Edgewater.

A free-flying colony of these birds, also known as Quaker parrots, have been nesting high on utility poles in this borough for nearly 40 years.

Fort Mahwah One of the most secured buildings in the country is located in Mahwah. The New York Stock Exchange Euronext data center, the hub for the NYSE’s electronic trading operations, has limited access to the public and is located in a “fortress” made to withstand all types of disasters—natural and man-made.

All work and no play... makes for a very dull hotel At Time Hotels we think that your stay should have more to offer than the same drab guest room and expected dining options.

In our Nyack location, you’ll find a loft aesthetic in a warehouse conversion, accented by an award-winning menu from BV’s Grill, a rooftop bar with sweeping views of the Hudson and loaner bicycles on demand.

In other words, not your typical hotel fare.

DEVON FINE JEWELRY

The Devon Experience “WE AREN’T YOUR TYPICAL jewelry store,” says Nancy Schuring, owner of Devon Fine Jewelry. Nancy grew Devon from a small apartment back in 1975 to her showroom in Wyckoff catering to clientele seeking the largest selection of diamonds and colored gemstones in Northern NJ. Devon exclusively carries the Fire Cushion diamond, a unique soft, square cut only found at a handful of jewelry stores in the country and a favorite among engaged couples. Devon also carries custom map necklaces by A. Jaffe, on which a diamond precisely marks any special address in the world on a tiny engraved map. What sets Devon further apart from other jewelers is the way in which they can redesign a diamond to make it appear larger than it really is. “We call it the Devon magic touch,” says Nancy about their secret method to enlarging diamonds. “Isn’t that what every woman wants?” The answer is a resounding “yes!”

DAYNA CASSANDRA COSMETIC DENTISTRY

Healthy Smiles DR. DAYNA CASSANDRA considers it a privilege to practice dentistry.

Although the focus of her practice is on restorative and cosmetic dentistry formulating treatment plans that create winning smiles, Dr. Cassandra sees the bigger picture. “My intention is to create an environment where we contribute to the overall health of our patients. We do more than treat conditions of the oral cavity,” states Dr. Cassandra. “For example, we help those suffering from irregular sleep patterns, headaches and jaw pain to improve overall quality of life.”

We also have an on-site periodontist who can properly diagnose and treat periodontal disease. The disease affects at least 50% of the population.

With proper care, the disease can be controlled, improving one’s total health.

Through the most modern technology in dentistry, like Digital Smile Design and GLO Smile, Dr. Cassandra can deliver results with remarkable precision and extraordinary benefits. With a flourishing practice and a position as Assistant Clinical Professor at NYU, Dr. Cassandra is introducing leading dentists to her team to carry on the excellent care so many have come to appreciate.

ERIC ALT SALON

“BESPOKE” PRECISELY describes every client’s experience when they step into one of the four (and one brand new) Bergen locations of the Eric Alt Salon. “We pioneered the NYC salon experience in Bergen,” says Eric Altomare, owner, who filled the need for a sophisticated salon in the suburbs in 2005. With Eric’s 25-plus years of working with top celebrities worldwide, he’s able to handpick an award-winning team of master colorists, many with the coveted title of American Board Certified Haircolorist, to bring truly tailored experiences to clients. He has numerous locations for a good reason.

“We keep our salons small to ensure intimate conversations with clients,” Eric says. Each salon focuses on color, cuts, blowouts and the ALT line of hair products with many organic ingredients. “We offer curated services so we can focus on what we do best,” Eric says, and off he goes to make another client look and feel A-list beautiful.

HARDWARE DESIGNS

THE GOREN BROTHERS are not patting themselves on the back when they say that their showroom offers the finest bath, kitchen, decorative hardware and lighting products from around the globe, along with superior customer service and more parking than the competing big-box home stores. They’re just stating the facts about why Hardware Designs has excelled in the industry for over 30 years.

“We have more products displayed here than you’ll find in any other local brick-and-mortar store,” says Larry. “As for the Internet, ordering luxury products online is a gamble if you are putting good money into a kitchen or bath remodeling project. To create a truly inspired, quality space, you need the full sensory experience of walking among thousands of products, accompanied with exceptional customer service,” he says. “Our staff knows what they are doing because they have deep product knowledge, and because they are full time employees, they care for and take the necessary time to work with every customer,” says Ken.

Get a Mammogram. Because you can’t fight breast cancer if you don’t know you have it.

Breast Care The Breast Centers of Atlantic Health System are nationally recognized for quality, with physicians dedicated to breast care — and only breast care. We also look at breast cancer screening from every angle, using 3D digital mammography (breast tomosynthesis) — the latest innovation that makes breast cancer screening and detection much more accurate. And because we know medical care isn’t just about the technology, we threw out the paper gowns and the cold changing rooms and replaced them with an experience that many patients have described as “spa-like”— complete with soft robes, comfortable lounges and convenient evening and Saturday appointments.

So get a mammogram today. It just might save your life.

Call 1-855-862-APPT (2778) to schedule an appointment or visit atlantichealth.org/breastcenters.

“I lost 63.8 lbs and 17.4% body fat!”

“I had more energy and began to feel better and better each day and along with this feeling, I began to take the weight off. I felt healthier and more confident each day. I finally found a program that I really enjoyed coming to. The weekly appointments made all the difference. Having a scheduled time on the calendar made it work for me. No putting it off till later or going tomorrow, it’s an appointment and is easy to keep. I made my workout appointments a priority and worked my exercise days around my appointment. I can’t believe it’s been months already since I joined this amazing family of staff, trainers, and members.”

Our county is a great place for viewing many types of birds. Below are some of the top spots for bird-watching. For more, visit bergencountyaudubon.org and njaudubon.org.

The Celery Farm N. Franklin Tpk., Allendale.

This 107-acre wildlife oasis in the middle of the suburbs is home to 240-plus species of birds, more than 50 of which breed here.

DeKorte Park 2 DeKorte Park Plz., Lyndhurst. This New Jersey Meadowlands park is located along the Atlantic Flyway, one of the three major routes used by migratory birds in the United States.

Enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view.

Harrier Meadow Disposal Rd. near Schuyler Ave., North Arlington. The 70-acre wetland mitigation site has been restored by the New Jersey Meadowlands Commission. The annual Meadowlands Festival of Birding, open to the public, is held here.
