Daily 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 by Daniel Katzive unless otherwise attributed. Twitter @dannykatman

Mellow Monday

Summer conditions prevailed and traffic was light on Monday. The ARC Gloria, which arrived Saturday at Pier 86, set sail for Mexico in the afternoon (no photo unfortunately).

North River anchorages were empty in the morning

The Haggerty Girls ATB came south empty from Albany and anchored in the Upper Bay

Daisy Mae brought a load of rock south through the afternoon haze to the Greenville anchorages off Jersey City

The Brian Courtney (previously known as the Patricia Winslow) brought empty looking hoppers down from Tompkins Cove NY. There is a quarry there but it has been closed for 10 years.
