Observations on the Hudson River as it passes through New York City. The section of the Hudson which passes through New York is historically known as the North River, called this by the Dutch to distinguish it from the Delaware River, which they knew as the South River. This stretch of the Hudson is still often referred to as the North River by local mariners today. All photos copyright Daniel Katzive unless otherwise attributed.

Summer lull

Overnight rain gave way to another hot day Thursday. River traffic was fairly light.

Barges of stone moved south in the morning
And empty barges moved north in the afternoon
Kristin Poling made an early loop up the river and back with an empty barge before heading for Cateret
The DEP’s Red Hook made its appointed rounds, passing a crew boat
Late Wednesday afternoon, this bulker came through, passing Hudson Yards en route for Coeymans. The Queen arrived from Garrucha after a stop in Portsmouth, NH, suggesting there is gypsum on board.
