Save the Date: One of Hoboken’s favorite traditions, Little League Opening Day & Parade, is set for April 5th!
And here’s a little-known fact with a sprinkle of self-promotion: Over 30 years ago, Hoboken installed a “baseball diamond” at 11th and Washington, complete with brass bases on each corner. During the extensive Washington Street redesign that began in 2017, there were no plans to preserve this piece of history. When I discovered this, I worked closely with the contractor to save and reinstall the original numbers on new concrete bases. On Little League Baseball’s Opening Day in 2019 they were unveiled, preserving this ode to Hoboken’s baseball history. #DetailsMatter #HobokenFirstAndAlways
