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.

The long cold winter has meant lots of demand for heating oil up north and the Hudson River has been busy with tank barge traffic. On Friday morning, the Saint Emilion tug/ A87 tank barge pair operated by Poling-Cutler were heading for Rensselaer and Hawsepiper/ Flaco were en route to Buckeye Newburgh with pool product cargos.
