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.

Haugland Group towboat Miss Madeline was northbound on the North River Wednesday with a pair of hopper barges. A black cargo was visible in one, perhaps asphalt millings. Madeline was heading for Haugland’s small port facility in Tompkins Cove in Rockalnd County. By the early hours of Thursday, she was back in New York Harbor heading for the company’s facility near JFK.
