Robin, Do you or other descendants of Charles Fall have any documentation that he had any connection to the design or development of the building at 1036 Washington St. in Hoboken (southwest corner of 11th and Washington Sts.) that Helmer's Restaurant occupies? I ask because I am gathering material in order to nominate Helmer's to the National Register of Historic Places. The building sustained fire damage on the top three floors two weeks ago. Fortunately, no one died, the building appears to be largely intact, and neither smoke nor water significantly damaged the restaurant on the first floor. I know Charles Fall is credited with the architecture of the handsome buildings on the west side of the 1200 block of Washington St. (right behind where I live on Bloomfield St.) and I wondered if he also did the Helmer's building.
