    Hoboken Exchange - Transforming a Gateway into an Experiential Destination for Consumers
    (2019) De Carlo, Andrea Vincent; Bell, Matthew; Architecture; Digital Repository at the University of Maryland; University of Maryland (College Park, Md.)
    Hoboken Terminal contains five modes of public transportation, each of which, connects Hoboken to its surrounding municipalities, the rest of New Jersey, and to New York City. Hoboken Exchange explores how public transportation could be used as a means to capture the value of people in an area. Through the use of a market hall, this project looks to connect detached places, capitalize on commuter movement, and utilize flexible design to ensure adaptation to future social and market needs.

    Minor League Baseball in the City: An Urban Ballpark and Redevelopment Around the Hoboken Terminal
    (2009) Ponsi, Matthew Robert; Bell, Matthew J; Architecture; Digital Repository at the University of Maryland; University of Maryland (College Park, Md.)
    This thesis explores the necessity to develop the area around the Hoboken Terminal into a regional attraction. The site is targeted as a "focal point for development" to become "more of a destination" and a "gateway" for the city. Although boasting ideal accessibility and panoramic views of Manhattan, the area exists as a gap along the Hudson River waterfront. It should be a social destination, a Transit-Oriented Development, and a link between the two expanding neighborhoods. Anchoring the plan will be a minor league ballpark just south of the Hoboken Terminal in Jersey City. This ballpark will serve as a year-round magnet for regional activity and as a cultural attraction adjacent to associated mixed use, residential, and recreational development. It will explore how a stadium should define and be defined by its urban environment and the role it should play in the context of the city.
