It is the largest tributary of the Hudson River. The Mohawk flows into the Hudson in Cohoes, New York, a few miles north of the city of Albany. [10] The river is named for the Mohawk Nation of the Iroquois Confederacy. It is a major waterway in north-central New York. In the early 19th century, the river's east-west valley provided the setting and water for development of the Erie Canal, as a key to developing New York." (from Wikipedia) .
