Hudson Place, designated Hudson County Route 736, is a 0.05 mile (0.08 km) long street in Hoboken, New Jersey that runs along the north side of Hoboken Terminal, providing the only automobile access to the major transportation hub. The street ends at Warrington Plaza, where the original ferry slips and main entrance to the waiting room of the station are located.^[2] The Hudson River Waterfront Walkway crosses the foot of the street.

Transit hub

For many years Hudson Place functioned similarly to Exchange Place farther down the Hudson waterfront as a terminus for many trolley lines which crisscrossed Hudson County. One of the few cobbled streets left within it, the streetcar tracks can still be seen.^[3] At one time more than ten lines operated by the Public Service Railway originated and terminated here^[4], including the Hoboken Elevated. The last to depart was the #7 Jackson on August 7, 1949. The current bus terminal was built soon after bustitution was completed.^[5]
