Hoboken Parking Garage To Become Residences: Meeting Link Here
By Caren Lissner
HOBOKEN, NJ — The city of Hoboken is hoping to turn a parking garage into workforce housing with parking. They're holding a virtual public meeting on Tuesday night.
Under the plan, Municipal Garage B, located at Second and Hudson streets, would become a mix of affordable and workforce housing.
Members of Hoboken's City Council were mixed in their opinions of the current plan.
"The Administration is proposing a major project for Garage B, including a potential 25-story building, without first getting feedback from our community," said Councilman Paul Presinzano this week. "This is a serious lapse in transparency. That’s why I demanded the proposal be pulled from the City Council agenda in December 2024 until residents have a chance to see the plans and share their input."
Councilwoman Emily Jabbour said, "This is a project that I'm particularly excited to see move forward and discuss as part of a larger platform to address affordability of housing in Hoboken.”
