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.

Up from the South River

The Vane Brothers tug Potomac, who I last saw almost exactly a year ago bunkering a container ship in Port Newark, came up the North River on Tuesday with a loaded-looking Double Skin 507, arriving from Philadelphia. After killing some time off North Bergen, she headed for IMTT Bayonne, perhaps to deliver the cargo. In the photo, she passes the anchored super yacht Constance, owned, at least at one time, by an American tech billionaire according to a 2018 article, and the Palisades Medical Center.
