 | | The City of Hudson, the first chartered city of the entire United States, is located along the west border of Columbia County and the east bank of the Hudson River in Columbia County, New York, USA. |
 | | Settled by New England whalers and merchants hailing primarily from Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard, and Providence, Rhode Island, Hudson was chartered as a city in 1785. |
 | | Hudson is located on what began as a spit of land jutting into the Hudson River between the South Bay and North Bay, now both largely filled and degraded (but not without hope of restoration). |
