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 cargo ship BBC Ukraine was on the North River passing the Galaxy Apartments in Guttenberg, NJ on a very hot Monday evening. She was heading for sea and her next port of call Portsmouth, NH after unloading a pair of transformers which I believe originated in Asia at the Port of Albany. The big cable spool on the deck was already on board before she arrived in Albany so that cargo must be headed for Portsmouth or was perhaps loaded at a previous US port of call in the Gulf for export to a foreign destination.
