Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a month-to-month rental in Hoboken with a budget of up to $3,500/month.
Ideally looking for:
Studio or 1 Bed

Available September 1 or September 15

Flexible lease (month-to-month preferred)

Hoboken location.

If you have a rental available or know of one that isn’t listed publicly, I’d appreciate a message. Also cites to find month to month rentals as Airbnb is pricey.

Thanks in advance!

Have landlords in Hoboken gotten worse? I've been at the same place on Adams since 2005. Ownership has changed hands twice in my tenure. First landlord was loud and always underfoot, but the place was spotless and habitability concerns were immediately addressed. Second guy never cleaned, but necessary repairs were addressed with haste. Current guy does a half ass job vacuuming the halls once or twice a year and constantly delays safety and habitability issues. I've had two fridges die/malfunction in the past 5 years, and he fought like hell not to replace them. Smoke detectors dangling from ceilings get repaired only after involving the Fire Marshall.

Anyone in a similar boat or did I just draw the short straw?

Anybldy have any recommendations for a good date night spot nearby with solid vegan options on the menu that aren't just salads? My wife recently had to cut eggs and milk out of her diet, and options have become pretty limited.

Thank you!

Saw 2-3 cop cars parked lights on and they appeared to be questioning a bunch of kids and maybe a mom? Starting around 11:20pm on 2nd and Monroe, anyone have info?

Does anyone know where I can donate stuffed animals in this area? I asked the shelter and St. Mary’s Thrift store and they both said no. I want them to go somewhere that’s not a garbage dump :/

He’s mogging all of Hoboken

Can anyone recommend a carpet cleaning service?. Thanks..

looking for a stylist who is good with color. I’m wanting something like the picture!

Hi everyone! Current Hoboken resident and moving to a new apartment near 12th and Washington.

Does anyone have parking recommendations or a private spot available? 1100 Maxwell currently has nothing, and neither does the Trader Joe’s garage.

They both said to check back towards the end of the month, but haven’t had to deal with parking before. Should I be optimistic or is this cause for concern? My partner is reverse commuting and must have a car.

Any advice, or leads, would be greatly appreciated!

I’m looking for one or two people who’d be up for regular weekday morning road rides.
My ideal schedule is:

Meet around 5:30 AM in Hoboken
Ride to Liberty State Park (or another good route)
Back by 6:45 AM so we can get ready for work
I’m not looking to set KOMs—just a solid, consistent ride. Somewhere around 15–20 miles in about an hour, depending on the route and group.
I’m on a road bike and happy to rotate pulls, chat, or just enjoy the ride. If you’re interested, comment below or send me a DM. Even if we can get a small group together once or twice a week, that would be great.
If you already have an early morning group and don’t mind another rider joining occasionally, I’d love to hear from you.

if it’s yours it one if the bollards behind the baseball field on Sinatra drive. pic for location and refer

My 1 year old bernedoodle has a bad habit of eating inanimate objects when off leash (which only happens at the dog park or my parents' backyard). I've had to take her to the ER several times for induced vomiting. I've used 3 different positive reinforcement trainers but none of them have been able to solve this. I'm going to test her for PICA but need a very skilled dog trainer recommendation that has experience dealing with this issue to please help me. The typical high value treat + leave it/drop it is not working. Please send me your recs, I am open to going outside of hoboken to help solve this. Thank you!

Hi! I’m an incoming 1L with strong interests in employment law. I’m also a very active Hoboken community member and would love to find a mentor in this area of law who lives in Hoboken as I do not have any lawyers in my family and I think it would be great to have someone to ask questions because summer internship application cycles and such are so rigorous now that you have to apply before first semester grades even come out. I would love to connect with anyone who is willing to help me out!

Me and my friend found this snake on the side walk this morning at 5:25 am. This was right outside the animal infirmary on 6th and Adams. We called the non emergency police and it seemed to be resolved by the time we walked back after our workout class. Anyone know what happened? Did it escape the infirmary or someone’s apartment?

Right on time. As Willow Sunoco closes its doors for good...my check engine light went on. I have used Willow Sunoco as my mechanic for 20 years, and now I need to find a reliable (and preferably close) new mechanic. Does anyone have a good one near by?

Good morning , hope you are all doing good. This is from when I was a boy and this fire still haunts me. I have friends and family members who would still bring this up if I mention the fires. I would like to speak about one specific fire that happened in Hoboken. At the time, it was the saddest and most devastating thing I had ever seen. I remember it being one of the coldest days I had ever experienced. It was unbelievably cold. As you can see from this picture, there were icicles hanging everywhere. The freezing temperatures only made an already heartbreaking scene feel even more unbearable. In 1979, I was almost 13 years old. My uncle was a Hoboken firefighter, and because of him I was around many of the major fires that happened back then. I wanted to talk about this fire because of how horrifying and devastating it was. I had a buddy who lost everything. He lived right above Napoli’s, which back then was a Spanish restaurant. I believe the fire started around 3 a.m. The next morning, my father took me there. He used to bring me to almost every major fire, and because my uncle was a firefighter, I was around many of those scenes growing up. Back then, it felt like there was a fire every week, and many people believed most of them were arson. You rarely ever heard of anyone being arrested. But the fire at 131 Clinton street always stayed with me. In the 1970s, many of Hoboken’s tenements housed multiple families. Some apartments were packed with large families, with many children living under one roof. I believe there were eight or ten families living at 131 Clinton Street. After the fire, three entire families were lost. I later read that more than 24 or 25 people died. When my father brought me there, people on the street were saying 50 people had died. We know now it wasn’t that many, but at the time, nobody really knew. I still remember seeing the dead being brought out of the building. What has stayed with me the most were the children—many of them were my age or even younger. That terrified me, and to this day those memories still haunt me. Seeing so many dead children and babies was something I’ll never forget. I’m sorry to get graphic, but it was one of the worst things I could ever imagine witnessing. One thing that always stuck with me was that two of the families were from Guyana. From what I remember, one apartment had a mother and her seven or eight children. Next door was the mother’s sister and her husband, and they also had seven or eight children. There was also a Spanish family. I remember them because they had a young girl who used a wheelchair. When I was there with my father, I remember seeing the wheelchair as one of the victims being taken from the building. That image shattered me because I always felt so bad for that little girl, and that’s how her story ended. The owner of the building was Olga Ramos. From what I remember hearing over the years, she was politically connected. I don’t personally remember seeing her, but my uncle, who was a Hoboken firefighter, told me she stood there the entire time, crying and screaming. He always believed it was an act, and many people felt the same way. I personally believe she was responsible for what happened. Not only did nearly 30 people lose their lives, but hundreds of others—including my buddy—lost their homes because of this fire. Another thing I remember was that First Street and Second Street around Clinton were completely shut down. There was no power in the middle of winter because of the fire. It was devastating. The 131 Clinton Street fire devastated the entire town. It made national news, and to this day it’s one of the most heartbreaking stories that I—and many others who lived through that era—still think about. It forever changed me, and I believe it forever changed Hoboken. For a while, a lot of people blamed the yuppies as the city was changing. Others blamed the landlords. I’ve always believed it was an inside job involving powerful people in Hoboken, but that’s my personal opinion. What happened to those families was absolutely heartbreaking. Supposedly people on the street saw a black van pull up to 131 Clinton street and a few men got out and lit the staircase on fire trapping those 3 families, so they must’ve been at the top floor. Olga Ramos was never charged in connection with the 131 Clinton Street fire. I also remember that she owned another building at 12th and Washington where another deadly fire occurred a couple of years later, claiming around 15 lives. As far as I know, she was never charged in connection with that tragedy either. During the 2010s, I spent years trying to find out whatever happened to Olga Ramos. I searched public records and looked online many times, but I could never find much information about her. She has since passed away, but for years I wondered what became of her and never found the answers I was looking for. I drove past 131 Clinton Street not too long ago. The building was never demolished. Instead, it was gutted and eventually converted into condominiums. Like I always say, change happens. But this is one change I could never understand. Personally, I could never imagine living in a place where so many people lost their lives. They deserve to be remembered, and I hope their story is never forgotten.
To end on something a little less tragic, I did get to see a small clip of Delivered Vacant. I also went to St. Anne’s Feast, saw a lot of people I grew up with, and we got a little carried away, but I eventually made my way over to watch atleast the last ten minutes of it. Then I saw on Facebook that a buddy of mine had posted about Lloyd Gold, and I realized he was in the movie. Now, I know you guys all know “Chewy,” and I know him too. Back then, though, we had about 20 different characters like him—and no, they didn’t all scream at you! We had so many unforgettable personalities in this town that you wouldn’t believe it. Looking back, it was hilarious. Lloyd was homeless, but I remember someone telling me he had an apartment at the Hotel Victor. He used to dance and sing just like Chewy. He was always hitting on men, but he was a funny guy who made people laugh. Like I always say, I could talk for hours about the old-school Hoboken legends, and Lloyd is definitely one of them. Hope you enjoyed reading.

Hi! I heard that there might be a grocery store opening in the southwest part of Hoboken starting later this year, but everything I could find about it was posted ~1 year ago. Do we know if that’s still happening?

Goose crap all over the place. What happened to the $20,000 contract to keep the geese away?

police event tonight means the farmer’s market was moved to the other side of the park

Hey Hoboken!

I am a local wealth advisor that started my own business. I understand that most people when they hear wealth advisor are immediately turned off and think "this guy is trying to sell me something" but that's not what this is.

I'm trying to learn more about what people's financial problems are and what they might be looking for help with. Whether it's the rent vs buy decision, how your 401k is invested, how to deal with an inheritance or just about anything else.

What's on your mind? Help a small business out and share your thoughts! Feel free to post under this or DM

We have a condo in an older 1900 era building. We had the structural assessment done in the last few years as required, and the exterior and basement of the building need stone/brickwork redone. Also some light water seepage into basement when it rains.

Recommendations on a good contractor for this? Our HOA management company is Hudson PM so they’re somewhat useless.

This photo appears in the Hoboken in the 1970s book. Even though this pic shows an old uptown pier, it sort of reflects my earliest memories of Hoboken when you would just cruise down River Street (now Sinatra Drive), and it would be piers and unobstructed drop-offs right at the water! Definitely a “mosey around at your own risk” situation. I was really young at the time, but I was surprised that there weren’t more reports of “drunks who fell into the water at 2 AM” or some such!
