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.

Deborah Quinn, a 1962-vintage 2,200 HP tug with classic lines, ran up the North River early Monday morning, heading for the shipyard in Kingston NY. Deborah is owned by Breakwater Marine Construction according to the Tugboatinformation website and I believe she has mainly been working on the East River resiliency project on the East Side for the past few years, but this week she was on the other side of town, likely heading in to have some work done at the Feeney shipyard.
