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 B. Franklin Reinauer/ RTC 81 ATB (a 4,000 HP tug built in 2012 paired with an 86,000 barrel barge) spent the early hours of Tuesday morning anchored on the North River off West New York. By 8:30 am she had pulled up her hook, pivoted into the flood tide and headed for the Upper Bay where she anchored on the Bay Ridge Flats.
