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.

Sweet Sunday

Splendid weather persisted through Sunday, with clear skies, light breezes and moderate temperatures. River traffic was fairly light, with the notable exception of one large cargo ship coming through early.

The Happy Dragon heavy lift cargo ship headed for Albany from Mexico, perhaps to pick up some large deck cargo for export
Buchanan12 headed south, with no Sunday day off on its daily dolomite run
Swimmers with escort boats continue to move through, passing below the Palisades here
The Haggerty Girls headed for Albany with a loaded barge
The Lake Shore Limited made its daily run to Chicago, passing a J24 sailboat on the river and Castle Village Apartments of Hudson Heights above
The Little Red Lighthouse continues its vigil below the Great Grey Bridge
