An Open Letter to the City of Hoboken:
The residents and owners of the 300 Washington Street fire would like to express our deep appreciation and gratitude to all for your love, support, and generosity during this most difficult time. The outpouring we have received has been overwhelming. While we may have lost our belongings and our beloved historical building, we have witnessed the kindness, beauty and generosity that embodies Hoboken.
You have come to our aid with donations, kind words, and a loving hand. For that you will always be in our hearts.

We would very much like to thank everyone who made donations of clothing, household items, and money to help us get back on our feet.
Thank you to the local businesses that hosted events for us or donated gift certificates to raise funds. We send our appreciation to all of the Hoboken residents, volunteers, local business owners, charity and social group organizers, website owners, bloggers, newspapers, and other media outlets who helped spread the word and raise awareness of our situation and the efforts to raise funds.
The list of supporters spans pages. While we can’t name them all here, we are eternally grateful for each and everyone’s help.
As numerous Hoboken residents have mentioned to us, our building was one of beauty that embodied the life blood of Hoboken. We hope to rebuild and bring back the splendor of it for everyone to enjoy again, as we once did.
Sincerely and with the utmost thanks and appreciation,
The residents and owners of 300 Washington St:
