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.

It was only 6 p.m. but DonJon’s J. Arnold Witte and Paul Andrew were in full December darkness Monday as they waited at the DSNY Pier 99 transfer station. Waste paper collected in Manhattan is brought from here to a recycling mill on the east shore of the Arthur Kill on Staten Island.
