Hi everyone. Amazon accidentally delivered my packages to whatever this address is. Can anyone tell me what address this is thank you!

Hey neighbors, I'm looking for some recommendations on some services below. I'll be having someone join the family very soon.

• A reputable physician for regular checkups and vaccinations
• A daycare
• Afterschool programs (I'm thinking swimming and obedience lessons)
• A sitter for the occasional day or two

Thanks!

Edit: a few more things to add

• Best locations for walks
• A groupchat for first-time parents to connect with

I will say it: it's time to close the shelter near the CSP. I don't want a public park in my town to be cesspit for zombies, who are not even from Hoboken. I don't want homeless junkies assault random people. I am fed up with this bullshit. I don't see why we have to put up with any of this. This is our town and we should demand that those who are guests here respect our rules. If they don't, there are consequences.

Currently there is at least one cop patrolling CSP. it's sad something has to happen for Hoboken PD to do the most basic of public protection tasks.

I want you to remember this post when in six months something else violent happens and no police are present. Maybe then all you college students and new comers to Hoboken will understand.

Title says it all, seen more and more red hats popping up in the neighborhood. Fueling the racism and general fear as election grows near, anyone else concerned?

As hoboken continues explosive population growth and gains more notoriety as a wealthy party town these are the consequences for being an extremely population dense urban area.

Homeless panhandlers are of course going to panhandle in a wealthier towns. It's awful that hoboken used to be known for being an extremely safe town but this has and will continue to increasingly not be the case. People that are not tied to the local area have little care for the area.

Pretty much all extremely population dense urban areas have an element of crime. Manhatten, Chicago, LA, etc. Considering the immense amount of units developed in recent years and currently in some stage of development these problems should only be expected to get worse.

And that's not even mentioning how hobokens only entertainment draws are bars and clubs.

Throughout my childhood, teens, and early adult years I can't remember really any type of crime that wasn't attributed to the bars and clubs. Now we pretty much every element of criminality there is, and honestly the stuff popping up gets increasingly more concerning. I have fond memories of church Square Park but now I avoid that park at all costs. The recent incident regarding the homeless man spitting and assaulting people is infuriating.

Just wanna say to everyone, it's saddening but please treat hoboken the same as everywhere. Keep your head on a swivel and if you lack strength and fighting capability get yourself some strong mase or a taser/stun gun.

I hope this isn’t against community rules but sharing regardless.

The victim of yesterday’s attack is our nanny. She’s been with us for 3 years and is part of our family. The whole situation is horrifying and we’re exploring all avenues to fix this issue and support her in any way possible.

Working with the community of moms, my wife has set up the following gofundme in support of her recovery.

Anything at all will be so greatly appreciated.

Based on some of the crap that's been going on around town recently, wondering if any one knows what happened with that delivery driver who groped multiple women in a 30 minute spree?

I think he got caught but wondering if any one knows if he's actually in jail or got let out quickly?

https://hudsoncountyview.com/letter-hoboken-residents-must-vote-no-on-the-rent-control-referendum/Hoboken’s Public Question is NOT about Affordable Housing

Approving it won’t allocate any public funds. Its main effect would be to allow landlords of below-market apartments to raise rents significantly.

If Vote Yes wins, landlords could:

1)    Claim that the current very low rent tenant moved out voluntarily (SPOILER ALERT – the rent control office is understaffed, and never verifies).

2)    Pay $2,500 into the city’s affordable housing trust fund. Nice try, but to truly be an affordable housing law, you have to have a mechanism that builds substantial amounts of affordable housing, and you don’t.  The name of the fund doesn’t count for anything, just what it does.

If payment were required for a fund aimed at “ending world hunger” do you think we’d believe It was an “end world hunger” law? I don’t think so.

The initiative targets long-term tenants, many who have occupied their apartments for decades and who pay less than 80% of the market rent.  These units (estimated range from 200-500) will see significant increases.

Even under generous assumptions—500 tenants vacating voluntarily—the maximum potential revenue raised would be $1.25 million, enough to, possibly, fund three affordable units at an aggressive cost of about $425,000 each.  But wait, I say.

In this scenario 500 folks will have vacated and some of them will want to stay in town. Some of them will have the means to find alternate living arrangements, but many won’t.

So, if only 10% want to stay in town and half of them can’t afford to without help we’ve increased demand for affordable units for Hoboken residents by 25 and supply by three for a net of -22. This isn’t helping.

Approval of the Public Question could put “Very Low Rent Tenants” at risk

The Vote Yes folks push back hard on my last scenario. Some argue that those who leave voluntarily wouldn’t want to stay in Hoboken. When I suggest that some ‘voluntary’ moveouts are less voluntary than people claim, they can get offended.

But even well-meaning landlords may sell to the highest bidder, incentivizing negative behavior towards tenants and inviting bad actors to town. Laws are meant to encourage compliance, but if there’s financial motive to exploit the system, bad actors emerge.

I know very low rent tenants who are scared. They see this change to the law as a means for landlords to profit by pushing them out of their homes. There is nothing in this law to allay their fears.

Team Anti Rent Control seems willing to say anything to get a win

Their previous attempts to weaken rent control failed and the facts don’t support their arguments about “tax relief” and “real investment in affordable housing.”

Fortunately, a coalition of people including volunteer members and leaders of HFHA, DSA, the newly formed HUT and many others have provided support to the Vote NO side.

Vote Yes dismisses as “hysterical,” critics’ claims that they are making things up. Then they turn around and make up more claims that aren’t true. They claimed in their last mailer that their law reinforces “Anti-harassment laws.” I

n fact, their law is silent on harassment and Hoboken doesn’t have any anti-harassment laws to reinforce. They claim to provide tax relief, but the law is silent again and they make no credible case that any tax relief will be forthcoming.

They claim to be addressing Hoboken’s affordable housing shortfall through major investment, but as we just discussed, this law invests zero public dollars and building the three units that the most generous assumptions allow would requires 500 people to vacate their units of which at least 25 would be vying for those three.

This would make our shortfall worse, not better.

Vote Yes is working to make this a battle in which facts don’t matter because the facts aren’t their friends. Why else would they accuse fair housing volunteers and a Jewish city council person of working with Hamas rather than defending the text of their law?

I worry their campaign of confusion backed by lots of money, could get this bad law on the books.

If Vote Yes wins, they’ll be back to end rent control once and for all

When rent control is used well it helps stabilize communities under stress. It offers a necessary roadblock to massive disruptive rent increases.

Rent control slows but does not stop lower income folks from being forced out of their homes to make way for folks able to pay more.

Over the past 50 years, Hoboken has seen periods of very strong demand and relative stability, but the threat remains. Vote No.

Anybody here own their own business that they started from the ground up? Would love to hear your story to see how realistic it would be for me. Thank you!

Does anyone have experience charging market rent for a rent regulated apartment? With regulations, my apartment rents for approximately $1,800, but market rent is closer to $2,600. How bad could repercussions be if I'm found out?

Please, serious answers only.

Hey everyone! My job just started offering a monthly stipend specifically for a gym membership. If I don't use the money for that, it's gone. With money as no object, what would you say is the best, nicest gym in Hoboken? The type you can't afford but wish you could, lol. Preference is for downtown and a place where I can just workout by myself, no instructors/classes/etc necessary, but I'm open to hearing all of your suggestions! Thanks in advance.

Walking across town today and in addition to the litter from candy wrappers I saw a lot of discarded/dropped chocolate (peanut butter cups, snickers... maybe a peanut thing?) on the sidewalk and my first thought was some poor dog it gonna gobble up a piece and get sick.

Is 600 harrison apartments in hoboken a good place to live in? Have heard many mixed reviews online.

Are Halloween things still going on Saturday November 2nd? Or will everything be back to normal vibes? Like I’ve seen lots of debate about if last weekend or this weekend was “Halloweekend”

Fireworks have become too much. They go on for hours and cause a lot of stress. My cat was so scared, she wouldnt eat even windows closed. I cant imagine how much worse it is for animals outside, like birds and stray animals. It feels selfish that people keep doing this without thinking about the impact on others. (They still doing it)

PA Acura driving around shooting people with a BB gun. Hit my friend in the eye and me in the stomach.

So what’s the deal with all this work being done here. What are they doing exactly and why is it taking so long? It feels like it’s been almost a year since they started working there minus the break in the summer. Are they any closer to finishing? I work right there in the area and it’s super frustrating dealing with it everyday. Is this something that can’t be done in the night instead? Just looking for some answers.

What’s happening at the light rail? So many police cars pulling up

I've lived in Hoboken for close to 10 years now and it has been a steady decline under clown Mayor Ravi Bhalla.

1. Increasing homeless, including violent offenders.
2. Streets infested with delivery drivers, 95% breaking traffic rules.
3. Waterfront shut down for months with no end in sight.
4. No progress on cleaning up the streets from trash and dogshit everywhere.
5. No uptown representation in the mod list.
6. Hospital still scamming local residents left and right.
7. Now the entire PATH station closed for an entire month in the dead of winter.
8. The dry dock is still an eye sore, but don't worry now it blends in with the rest of the waterfront.

What HAS Ravi accomplished exactly?
