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.

Moran’s Barney Turecamo/Georgia ATB, a 5,100 HP tug paired with a 425-foot 118,000 barrel barge, is not often on the North River, but the unit paid a short visit on Thursday, traveling up river as far as 72nd Street before making a tight turn and heading back to the harbor. As of Saturday morning she is at a pier in Bayonne’s IMTT terminal.
