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 Chief, a small 15,000 dead-weight ton Marshall Islands flagged tanker, came down the North River heading for sea on Monday. The Chief had discharged a cargo in Rensselaer after arriving from the Caribbean with intermediate stops in Wilmington and Port Morris (the Bronx) and my guess is that this was an asphalt delivery. Coming soon to a pothole near you.
