Superstorm Sandy was a historic event in Hoboken, and the Hoboken Historical Museum is gathering stories from residents and visitors to document the storm’s immediate and ongoing impact on our community. Everyone’s story, no matter how great the storm’s impact, is a valuable part of our history.

We are inviting people to reach out to us to record their stories through a wide range of options.

  • Add your story to our blog by posting in the comments area below.
  • Call 201-537-6778, enter 10#, and follow the instructions to record a brief recollection of two to four minutes.
  • Send us an email with your story and digital images to SandyStories@hobokenmuseum.org.
  • You may also mail us your written stories and storm-related photographs to PO Box 3296, Hoboken, NJ 07030, or drop them off at the Museum, 1301 Hudson St.

Selected stories may be added to the Museum’s collections and used in our programs and presentations.
