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 first day of spring brought warm moist air and fog to the North River. The B. Franklin Reinauer/ RTC 81 ATB (4000 HP tug launched in 2012, 347 foot barge) was heading for Albany with a products cargo and passed Stephen Reinauer with RTC 61 who had anchored off West New York on the way back from Newburgh (2900 HP 1970 vintage tug, 311 foot barge).
