• NJ Transit Train Crash In Hoboken 10 Years Ago Was Followed By Grief, Changes, New Loss (patch.com) — Hoboken residents are marking ten years since the deadly NJ Transit train crash at Hoboken Terminal that killed commuter and young mother Fabiola de Kroon and injured more than 100 people. The piece revisits the family's losses, outlines multimillion‑dollar settlements, and details new safety measures at the Hoboken station, including Positive Train Control and stricter medical screening for engineers.
• 45+ New Businesses Coming to Hoboken + Jersey City in Fall 2026 (hobokengirl.com) — Hoboken is seeing a wave of new spots, from yoga studios and wellness centers to dessert shops, cafes, and fitness chains opening across Washington Street, Jackson Street, and beyond. Many are already serving customers, while others like City Fitness, Pura Vida, and new coffee and dessert shops are slated to open later this year and into 2026, expanding local dining, shopping, and workout options.
• Drilling to begin on Gateway Tunnel rail project after federal judge nixed Trump funding pause earlier this year (amny.com) — Major drilling has begun on the Gateway rail tunnel, with boring machines set to reach a Hudson County access shaft on the Weehawken–Hoboken border in about a year. The $16 billion project will add a new Hudson River tunnel and repair the aging North River Tunnel, aiming to protect Amtrak and NJ Transit service crucial to Hoboken-area commuters.
