'''Hoboken Terminal''' is a [[commuter]]-oriented [[Intermodal passenger transport|intermodal passenger station]] in [[Hoboken, New Jersey|Hoboken]], [[Hudson County, New Jersey]]. One of the [[New York metropolitan area]]'s major transportation hubs, it is served by eight [[NJ Transit]] (NJT) [[NJ Transit Rail Operations|commuter rail lines]], an NJ Transit [[Meadowlands Rail Line|event shuttle to Meadowlands Sports Complex]], one [[Metro-North Railroad]] line, various [[NJ Transit Bus Operations|NJT buses]] and private bus lines, the [[Hudson–Bergen Light Rail]], the [[Port Authority Trans-Hudson]] (PATH) rapid transit system, and [[NY Waterway]]-operated ferries.

More than 50,000 people use the terminal daily, making it the [[List of busiest railway stations in North America|tenth-busiest]] railroad station in North America and the sixth-busiest in the New York area. It is also the second-busiest railroad station in New Jersey, behind only [[Pennsylvania Station (Newark)|Newark Penn Station]], and its third-busiest transportation facility, after [[Newark Liberty International Airport]] and Newark Penn Station.

The rail and ferry terminal buildings were constructed in 1907 by the [[Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad]], a former Class 1 railroad. In 1930, Thomas Edison was at the controls for the first departure of a regular-service electric multiple-unit train from Hoboken Terminal to Montclair. In 1973, the terminal building was added to the [[New Jersey Register of Historic Places]] and the [[National Register of Historic Places]].

Hoboken Terminal is considered a milestone in American transportation development, initially combining rail, ferry, subway, [[Tram|streetcar]], and pedestrian services. Later, [[bus]] and [[Light rail|light-rail]] services were added to the terminals. Another feature of the terminal's design is the terminal's 225-foot (69&nbsp;m) clock tower. The tower was replaced by a radio tower that stood for more than half a century, until being removed in June 2006,<ref>{{cite web |last1=Stessel |first1=Dan |title=NJ Transit To Begin Rebuilding Clock Tower At Hoboken Terminal |url=https://www.njtransit.com/press-releases/nj-transit-begin-rebuilding-clock-tower-hoboken-terminal |website=njtransit.com |access-date=10 February 2023}}</ref> when it was replaced with a new clock tower modeled after the original.
