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.

Traffic was brisk Thursday after Wednesday’s lull and the overnight gale. A number of ATBs came up from the Upper Bay overnight during the storm and remained at anchored on the North River through the day. A large piece of GE equipment came through heading for a power plant in New Jersey.
