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 4,200 HP Pinuccia, one of two tugs operated by Boston Marine Transport, came up the North River early Wednesday with an oil products cargo loaded on the company’s New York 30 barge heading for Newburgh. After returning to the harbor the next day, the unit loaded a new cargo and headed up to New Haven. By Sunday evening, Pinuccia is back in New York Harbor, outbound on the Kill van Kull after calling at a terminal in Port Reading overnight.
