STATEMENT FROM MAYOR BHALLA ON THE PASSING OF FORMER MAYOR ANTHONY RUSSO

“Mayor Russo was a larger than life figure who was beloved by his family, friends and community. His contributions to Hoboken were many, including the revitalization of our waterfront, an effort that continues to this day. Hoboken is the great place it is today in large part thanks to his vision for our City, and his memory will live on for generations to come. My sincere condolences are with the entire Russo family for their loss.”

Mayor Bhalla has ordered all municipal flags in the City of Hoboken to fly at half-staff for one week starting on Tuesday, April 20, in honor of Mayor Russo.
