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.

A lot of cement was moving down the North River last week from the Amrize plant (formerly Lafarge) in the Town of Coeymans near Ravenna, some of it heading for out-of-town terminals. Dann Marine tug Sapphire Coast made two runs at least and we saw Pearl Coast as well. As of Monday morning, Sapphire appears to be unloading at the Sparrows Point terminal in Baltimore and Pearl is approaching Boston having departed Providence last night.
