An Introduction to Hoboken Brownstones

The early homes were of the Greek Revival Style (built around the 1840s) and the ones built a few decades later are of the Italianate-style of home (built in the 1850s and 1860s). However, housing needs continued to increase in Hoboken so much of the residential development occurred in the 1870 through the 1890s. Many have been updated to varying levels. Some are gutted and completely modern. Others boast modern conveniences while retaining original charm. Most of these homes do not have parking attached but there are parking options nearby. The houses all vary in width and depth. Usually homes on the cross streets (# streets) have lots of shorter depths so they don’t have a yard or much outdoor space. While most of the brownstones are located uptown, there are single and multi-family homes throughout the entire town.
