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’s 1977 vintage 1,200 HP tug Nathan G brought a set of hoppers loaded with stone down the North River on Saturday, passing the Bull Ferry condos in Guttenberg NJ. They were headed for the Bay Ridge flats where hoppers can be left at moorings and interchanged for onward delivery. As of Sunday morning, Nathan was at the Weeks Marine pier in Bayonne.
