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.

Boston Marine Transport’s 4,200 HP tug Pinuccia came down the North River Friday with the light New York 30 tank barge, returning to the harbor from a New Year’s Day run up to Newburgh to deliver their first products cargo of 2026 up there. The brisk southwest wind was running against the tail end of the ebb tide and kicking up a a bit of swell in front of the barge.
