hoboken

Hoboken is a lively and historic place to be! It’s right across the Hudson River from Manhattan, so have amazing views of the NYC skyline, especially at sunset – which makes it a truly photo-worthy place to be. The city has an awesome small-town vibe with its tree lined residential streets and small shops, but of course has all the perks of being close to New York City.

One of my favorite fun facts about Hoboken is that Frank Sinatra was born here. The area loves to celebrate its history and even has a park named after him! And if you’re a baseball fan, you’ll love knowing that the first recorded game of modern baseball was played at Elysian Fields right in Hoboken.

Walking around Hoboken instantly feels like home. With a perfect mix of charming historic brownstones and modern condos, there's a place for everyone. Washington Street is the main downtown hub, packed with great restaurants, bars, and shops. It’s perfect for a day of exploring or a fun night out. Plus, Pier A Park and Pier C Park are the perfect places for relaxing, jogging, or soaking in the views.

There’s also Stevens Institute of Technology, which brings a youthful, energetic vibe to the city. Whether you’re thinking about moving here or just planning a visit, Hoboken has a little bit of everything.

What do you think? Does Hoboken sound like a place you’d want to check out?
