new york In case you don't live near NY, the Hudson River is in New York and stretches through various parts of it. However, you should know this because of the 2009 Miracle on the Hudson, in which Captain Sullenberger of a flight from Newark was forced to land a plane in the Hudson River. He missed the George Washington Bridge by about 90 feet and no one was hurt, miraculously! He is now an American hero.

The explorer who claimed territory for the Dutch was Henry Hudson. He discovered both the Hudson River in present-day New York and Hudson Bay in Canada while searching for a Northwest Passage to Asia.
The explorer who first claimed land in the Americas for the Dutch was Henry Hudson in 1609. He explored the river that was later named after him, the Hudson River, which led to Dutch claims in what is now New York.
The Dutch took control of the Hudson River, establishing the colony of New Netherland in the early 17th century. This colony later became part of what is now known as New York.
Henry Hudson, an English navigator working for the Dutch East India Company, claimed the New York area for the Dutch in 1609. Hudson sailed up the river that now bears his name and established a trading post for the Dutch.
New York and New Hampshire claimed the Hudson River.
He was sent by the Dutch to find new water routes to Asiaa. He was in search of a Northwest Passage, but as we now know there isn't one. He claimed land for the Dutch along the way, and the river he explored is now known as the Hudson River in honor of him.
