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
A trip out of town provides a fresh perspective on marine traffic heading into and out of the New York area and the port of New Haven. The bulker Dragonera was visible in the Sound on Friday off Greenport heading for anchorage outside of New Haven. Saturday saw the tanker MTM Mississippi heading in the other direction, signaling the Bahamas after discharging cargo from Canada in New Haven.
