Hoboken, New Jersey
Hoboken was originally an island.  The Hudson River was to the east.  To the west was a swamp near the Palisades Sill. The island was a campsite used by the Lenni Lenape.   The name Hoboken comes from the original Lenape name for "Hobocan Hackingh" or "land of the tobacco pipe."  Europeans came in the 17th century.
