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 Coral Coast had a light cement barge on the hip in heavy winds on the North River on Saturday. Coral was bringing the barge back to the Holcim plant in Ravenna NY for more product after unloading at terminals in NY Harbor. The Ravenna plant is the only cement plant still operating on the Hudson, though a former plant in Cementon NY has been converted into an import terminal served by foreign flag bulk ships.
