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.

Continuing what has already been a heavy month of foreign flag ship traffic up the North River, the Amis Queen, a 650-foot Panama flag bulker, passed Washington Heights, the Cloisters, and Spuyten Duyvil en route to the Port of Coeymans. The ship was arriving from Italy and cargo is unknown, though another salt delivery or perhaps a scrap metal pick up are among the possibilities.
