A weekend power outage at Harmon Cove Towers in Secaucus has left more than 70 residential units without electricity, triggering frustration, discomfort, and uncertainty for dozens of families living in Tower 3.
The outage began on Saturday and quickly spread into a serious disruption affecting approximately 72 apartments. While some parts of the building continue to receive partial power, many residents have been left completely in the dark. For those affected, the loss of electricity has meant more than inconvenience; it has disrupted every part of daily life.
Without air conditioning, refrigeration, or functioning outlets, residents are dealing with rising indoor temperatures, spoiled food, and the challenge of keeping essential devices charged. Amid the summer heat, the situation has become increasingly difficult for families, seniors, and anyone relying on medical equipment.
Officials say the issue is internal, not a utility failure.
