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.

Dress rehearsal

A French Air Force A400M Atlas tanker and eight French alpha jet fighters flew down the North River Tuesday morning, with the fighters trailing red, white and blue smoke. The flight originated at Stewart, circled the Statue and headed for Virginia. The planes are part of the Patrouille de France, the official aerobatic demonstration team of the French Air and Space Force and are on a US tour celebrating the 250th anniversary of US independence which will culminate back in NYC on July 4, according to a press release from the USMA.
