FIRST STREET BLOCK PARTY: Hoboken Retail & Hospitality Businesses Host Celebration; Mayor Bhalla & Others in Dunk Tank — Saturday, September 14th

This Saturday, a band of retailers and hospitality venues will gather together on Hoboken’s First Street for a Block Party, celebrating the diverse make-up of Hoboken’s “other” main street. With food, booths, live music, petting zoo, bouncy castles, beer garden and a dunk tank, it’s sure to be a pretty festive event.

The block party will take place on 1st Street between Washington Street to Garden Street. That area and adjacent blocks will be closed to vehicular traffic, as the block party will showcase the various businesses along 1st Street with food and fun activities for the whole family.
