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.

Poling & Cutler’s Marilyn George came up the North River Thursday morning with an unfamiliar oil products barge. Rather than one of the company’s four familiar green and white painted tankers, Marilyn was pushing a blue and white painted barge Number Five which I’ve not seen before on the North River. The trip was otherwise a routine run up to an Albany terminal. By Sunday morning, Marilyn was back on the Arthur Kill.
