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.

Work is finally getting underway on the project to restore the old New York Central transfer bridge at West 69th Street. A pair of barges were delivered Wednesday and workers were setting up on Thursday morning. For more on the project, see my article in West Side Rag
from October 2024 (see article).
