Local News 📰 Residents on Hudson asked to remove Halloween decorations for filming

77 Upvotes

This is mental if true. I would’ve said Hell no. It’s bad enough they take up insane amounts of parking for such little contributions to the city, to ask private citizens to kowtow to your production is incredibly insulting. No one forced you to shoot your movie in Halloween season in a very festive area.

**RANT** 🤬 Elysian - wtf happened

• Upvotes

Been going to Elysian for years the previous owner was just fantastic and ran a smooth place . Since they switched idk what’s happening. This last Saturday it’s the last Saturday I’ll ever be back . We sat down , waitress took about 10 min ( all good they were busy ) I ordered a bottle of wine ( which I typically do cause service takes forever ) . My friend ordered a cocktail and 2 apple juices for the kids and our food order . The kids never got their juices , the cocktail did show up at some point and the food came with the wrong cheeses (( she added my friends cheese of choice to my sandwich and mine to hers ) all good I can live with that . I ordered an onion soup ( my favorite ) and no spoon came with the soup . My server has been nowhere to be found for the last 15-20 min or so but I’m sat and actively looking for her when what I believe is the manager notices and asks if I need anything to which I say yes a spoon and the kids drinks please . Shortly after our server appears and I tell her I’m sorry but my soup is cold to which she replies I don’t work in the kitchen ! lmao I literally chuckled and repeated my soup is cold and lifted , which she then says sorry I’ll take care of it . I received a microwaved soup after that , again all good there’s no point on saying anything else since at this point . We ordered the kids desserts and another drink and the check . Was never asked if we need anything with the food , checked on it or anything . Service is at a terrible decline at the place and the food I typically
Love so much there came cold and sad . I’m sorry to see it since it’s such a cute place , but we have learned our lesson and won’t be back . Bar service is always great and never have any problems but oh boy if you’re sitting at a table , good luck !

Question❓ Uptown 14th ferry service

15 Upvotes

The uptown ferry in 20 mins late every morning this week. In addition, the ferry buses once you get into the city have been a mess. They keep you waiting on them for another 15 mins until they depart.

What can be done about this? Hoboken residents rely on reliable transportation for our work commutes.

**RANT** 🤬 Sydney Sweeney traffic

• Upvotes

Road closures for this have uptown into a July 4th 2025 grid lock. The bus and hummer having an accident at the same intersection as filming (11th and Garden) didn’t help. This amount of road closures and no parking spots are out of control.

Question❓ Dog Owners: what is having a medium/big dog like in Hoboken?

2 Upvotes

Moved here a few years back and I’ve been thinking about getting my first dog since childhood. Maybe a medium/large dog like a golden retriever or Labrador.

My question is: how do you guys take care of your dog while you’re at work given we don’t have yards we can let them out on while at work? Dog walkers? Dog daycare? Or just good potty training?

I work modestly long hours, usually 9-8 three days a week in person so I’m mostly trying to get a sense of how to make sure the dog isn’t suffering while I’m away at work.

Any and all advice is welcome and appreciated!

**RANT** 🤬 Toddlers running toward the intersection

180 Upvotes

OK, listen up you overeducated and under commonsense’d young parents of Hoboken. Your toddler is not a voice activated A.I. robot. They have a will of their own. And they have the discipline of a 3 month old puppy. To wit, they don’t listen to shit if they don’t want to.

Letting your toddler run or scooter at full speed toward the intersections in this town is fucking stupidity. You want a dead baby? That’s how you wind up with a dead baby.

Witnessed it this morning. A willful toddler, kicking and screaming after Dad finally tried to hold his hand. This only after the kid bolted toward a busy four way intersection. Dad was far, far behind and just calling after his little athlete. Cars were in action right in front of that toddler by the time Dad caught up with sport-o.

This is not your college campus. This is not a suburban cul de sac. This is not your parents fenced in mansion wherever you came from.

Control your little kids. Or make plans for a funeral. Whatever. It’s your choice.

Hi! I know there’s construction by the path and I’m planning to go to Blue Anchor tonight and wondering if it’s actually walkable like Google Maps says it is. I’ve never walked this highlighted path before

0 Upvotes

Are you oblivious or just a pain in the ass?

EDIT: I’m not talking about folks who NEED the aisle. I’m talking about bros with AirPods in who pretend not to hear me when I say excuse me. I have no problem asking for a seat if someone if blocking it or have a bag on it!

**RANT** 🤬 Drivers clearly need a refresher

62 Upvotes

You are supposed to STOP at stop signs.
You should look both ways before crossing an intersection.
Blind people have the right of way. 39:4-37.1 Right-of-way crossing intersection for blind person, guide dog instructor.

How do I know he didn’t look both ways? After my cane contacted his car we had a chat and he admitted to only looking south. I was walking south. If he had looked both ways he would have seen me.

If you can’t be bothered to look both ways in Hoboken don’t drive in Hoboken. Pedestrians do not have to follow the one way street rules.

I could have called the cops… laws broken failure to stop at a stop sign and failure to yield for the blind.

**RANT** 🤬 ‘Free stuff’ getting citations

39 Upvotes

My building, and everyone in Hoboken, puts free stuff on the curb for people to take. My building recently got a $250 fine about 20 minutes after it was all put on the curb, by multiple people in my building, all with a ‘free’ note on it. I’ve been in Hoboken for 20 years and never had this type of citation or seen this enforced.

  1. Is it worth fighting the fine in court?
  2. Is this a new ordinance? And if so, why weren’t we notified?
  3. Are the days of leaving ‘free stuff’ on the curb over? Seems counter productive to the green initiatives the city claims to take (ie town wide gate sale this weekend to ‘reduce waste’.

Other Free women’s clothing sizes 14-18 in good condition

3 Upvotes

Where can I donate clothing locally? It’s a very large amount of clean women’s casual clothes, all in good to excellent condition, some new. No stains, no rips. They just don’t fit me anymore but are still nice. Includes items for summer and winter seasons, workout clothes and heavy winter coats. Women’s sizes 14-18, no designer clothes. The brands include mostly Uniqlo, Gap, J. Jill, Jude Connally. If someone wants to pick them all up locally in Weehawken, perfect. Not for resale.
