Hoboken was first developed by Colonel John Stevens in the 17th century as part of New Netherlands. The name Hoboken is an English translation of the Delaware Indians' name for the area, "Hopoghan"

The city is a gentrified riverside urban area

 

It was once a railroad town (Erie Lackawanna) across from Manhattan

 

One lesser-known attraction is Sybil's Cave, on Frank Sinatra Drive (who grew up in Hoboken)

 

 

Hoboken's grand railroad terminal was built in Beaux Arts style in 1907 where trains, subways, buses, ferries, and streetars could come together
