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.

Dann’s Treasure Coast brought a loaded cement barge down from the Holcim cement plant in Ravenna, NY on Monday. They passed the Haggerty Girls/RTC 107 ATB anchored off Edgewater and were heading for the Holcim cement distribution terminal in College Point, Queens, at the mouth of Flushing Creek. The GWB’s Veterans Day flag is visible on bridge’s west tower. On Wednesday morning, they were headed back in the other direction with the barge light and made up heads/tails on the hip.
