The North Constitution: A detailed look at this Hoboken rental
The North Constitution is a residential building located in Hoboken, New Jersey (07030), directly across the Hudson River from Midtown Manhattan. While its city listing places it under New York City, the property is physically in Hoboken — a popular commuter hub for students and professionals working or studying in NYC. The building offers studio, one-bedroom, and apartment-style units, with monthly rents ranging from USD 3,050 to USD 4,005 (indicative — confirm with the operator). It features a gym, swimming pool, and game room, and units are available from 6 July 2026.
Below is a decision-focused review based on available data and resident feedback.
Who is this residence for?
Commuters to New York City — Hoboken sits on the Hudson River waterfront, a short PATH train ride (approx. 10–15 minutes) to 33rd Street or the World Trade Center. For anyone studying or working at institutions in Manhattan, this building can serve as a practical base outside the boroughs.
Residents who value on-site amenities — The building includes a gym, swimming pool, and game room. These are not always present in similarly priced units in Manhattan, so if you plan to use fitness and recreation facilities, this building bundles them in the monthly cost.
Those who prefer responsive maintenance and management — Multiple recent Google reviews highlight the management and maintenance team. One resident, Alison Strauss, wrote: “Tiffany has been incredible during my time at The North Constitution. She’s always welcoming and incredibly helpful, especially during a recent move. She’s a wonderful first point of contact for the building and truly makes the resident experience better.” Another review by Monique Olivares states: “We’ve had a great experience with the management and maintenance team at North Constitution. They are responsive and professional, ensuring that the building is well-maintained and any issues are addressed quickly. Tiffany, in particular, has been amazing! She’s incredibly helpful, proactive, and gets things done effic.” This level of detailed praise for staff suggests a well-run building.
Individuals or couples seeking a quieter setting — Hoboken is less dense than most NYC neighborhoods. The address (Hoboken, NJ 07030) is a residential area with parks and waterfront promenades, offering a calmer daily environment compared to, say, Midtown or the Lower East Side.
Who might want to look elsewhere?
Budget-conscious renters — The from‑price in the city (New York City area overall) is USD 850/month (indicative — confirm with the operator). The North Constitution starts at over three times that, at USD 3,050. This building clearly sits at the higher end of the market. If your budget is below USD 2,500, you will need to consider other options, possibly shared apartments or neighborhoods farther from transit.
Students without a regular commuting routine — The building’s location in Hoboken means you will rely on PATH trains or NJ Transit ferries to reach most NYC campuses. If your classes are in Brooklyn, Queens, or the Bronx, the commute becomes longer and potentially more expensive. Check transit maps carefully before committing.
Those who want a traditional NYC neighborhood — Hoboken has its own character, but it is not Manhattan. If you want to walk out your door into the energy of a borough, this residence will not deliver that. It is a suburban‑style city block, with a heavy focus on commuting.
Large groups or families — Available unit types are studio, one-bedroom, and apartment. There is no mention of multi‑bedroom units that would suit three or more unrelated sharers. A couple or a single person is the typical demographic for the listed room types.
What residents actually say
Beyond the quotes already referenced, a third review from Anne Waskover offers insight into daily living:
“Love living in this building! The doorman are so nice, they keep the buildings so clean and whenever I needed something fixed, maintenance came immediately. Carlo (Tony) specifically has been great with fixing all things from hot water in the shower to my kitchen faucet and dishwasher.”
Key takeaways from the three available Google reviews (all rated 5 out of 5):
- Staff responsiveness — Both Tiffany (management) and Carlo (maintenance) are named and praised. This suggests a functional, resident‑focused operation.
- Cleanliness and maintenance speed — Common areas are kept clean, and repairs are handled promptly.
- Positive first impression — The building is described as “incredible” and residents express genuine satisfaction.
The sample is small (56 total reviews), but the uniformity of high ratings (5.0) is encouraging. No negative patterns appear in the excerpts provided.
Price positioning relative to the city
The overall New York City area has a from‑price of USD 850 (indicative — confirm with the operator), which likely reflects shared rooms or very basic studios in outer boroughs. The North Constitution’s minimum of USD 3,050 places it in the upper tier of rentals. For context:
- A studio or one‑bedroom in a similar riverside building in Hoboken or Jersey City often starts around USD 2,500–3,000 (indicative — confirm with the operator). The North Constitution is at the high end of that range.
- Compared to Manhattan below 96th Street, a comparable amenitised unit could be USD 3,500–5,000 (indicative — confirm with the operator). So the building may offer a relative value trade‑off: you pay less than a comparable Manhattan unit but more than many other Hoboken apartments.
If you are coming from a market with lower rents (e.g., many smaller US cities or overseas), be prepared for the steep jump. The indicative price should always be verified with the operator, as lease terms and seasonality may affect actual quotes.
Room-type guidance
The building lists three unit types:
- Studio — A single open room combining living, sleeping, and kitchen areas. Usually the most affordable option. Suitable for one person who wants minimal square footage.
- 1B (one‑bedroom) — Separate bedroom and living area. Better for a couple or someone who works from home and needs a distinct sleeping space.
- Apartment — This term is ambiguous. It could refer to a one‑bedroom with more square footage, or potentially a two‑bedroom layout. You will need to ask the operator for exact configurations. It likely means the larger, most expensive units.
Given the maximum price of USD 4,005 (indicative — confirm with the operator), the “apartment” type likely sits above the one‑bedroom in price. The available from‑date is 6 July 2026, so all unit types should be available for a mid‑2026 move‑in.
Booking timing
Units become available from 6 July 2026. For a July occupancy, it is wise to begin inquiries around March–April 2026. The building has only 56 reviews, suggesting it may not be a giant tower; a smaller number of units could mean faster sell‑out of desirable layouts.
If you are an international student or professional needing a visa‑required housing confirmation, allow extra time for lease signing and deposit transfers. The operator will expect a deposit (not specified in data) to hold a unit.
Given the high demand for Hoboken rentals near PATH stations, waiting until June to book may limit choices. Start your search 3–4 months before your desired move‑in date.
