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.

The Kirby Cape Hatteras / DBL 81 ATB left anchorage north of the GWB at sundown on Friday and headed for the Upper Bay where I believe she is currently alongside the oil products tanker Ipanema Street which arrived from Spain overnight, perhaps lightering a cargo(?). This is the first time I have photographed Hatteras since summer 2024 but this unit has been running up the Hudson and anchoring on the North River between trips periodically this fall and winter.
