Hoboken Flood

or Have Boat will Travel

For the close to six years I have spent in or around Hoboken, flooding is nothing new. After any decent storm it is common to see many intersections a big puddle. This is partially due to Hoboken being at sea level (the area used to be an island surrounded by swamp) and the complete lack of infrastructure building by the city. This is Hudson county by the way and huge amounts of luxury development don’t require city services it seems.

But this morning was something special, I have never seen so much water in this Mile Square. Some photos for your viewing pleasure:
