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.

Petroleum haulers are busy moving refined products up the Hudson River this month as winter heating oil demand gives way to summer driving season. On Thursday, Reinauer’s Kristy Ann/RTC 82 ATB was Albany-bound in the rain with a products cargo, passing Josephine/RTC 83 with a light barge anchored off North Bergen. On Friday morning, the longer Gracie M Reinauer/RTC 109 was moving the other direction, returning to the harbor after a delivery in Newburgh.
