Houseboat Living in New York City

My husband and I are thinking about buying a houseboat and living aboard, but we are reluctant to leave our beloved NYC.

I knew a family that used to live aboard their sailboat on the Hudson (around pier 29 I think), but I've heard that's no longer allowed.

Are there any places in NYC that one can live aboard a houseboat?

Dianna, that's an excellent question since many people would like to live on a houseboat in New York City.

I don't have any definite answers, however I remember reading recently that changes had been made to allow live aboard houseboats in some of the surrounding marinas.

Unfortunately I don't have a link to the article, but maybe some of our readers who know more about it, would be able to post a comment.

If you find out more info, please let us all know.
