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.

New York State Marine Highway Transportation’s tug Nathan G was among several vessels working at the Gateway Tunnel cofferdam site on Tuesday morning. A day later, the Federal government announced it was withholding billions of dollars in funding for this project as well as the Second Avenue Subway tunnel. The news create uncertainty for the entire project but work continues with tugs on site Thursday morning as usual and how this ultimately plays out is of course anybody’s guess.
