A river does not form a harbor. However, the Hudson River is the one that goes as far as the NYC harbor.
The Hudson River
The Hudson River ends at New York Harbor, and so does the East River, although technically the East River is not a river; it's a tidal strait (it connects to the ocean on both sides).
The river that starts at Lake Champlain and empties into New York City Harbor is the Hudson River. This could not have been possible without the building of the Champlain Canal in the early 1800's.
The mouth of the Hudson river is located near New York City harbor which is in the United States of America.
The New york Harbor entrance is also known as the "narrows"

Yes. New York City has a great harbor, which is one of the main reasons it has become such a major city.
The shoreline around New York Harbor is very steep, and underwater it drops off and becomes very deep very quickly. This makes it an ideal harbor, as there are no shallow places that boats can get stuck on. Being located on the edge of the ocean, and with a geologically perfect harbor, the city was destined to be a port city. As a port city, trading and business flourished, turning New York into the financial capital of the U.S. (if not the world).
There is no capital of New York Harbor. New York Harbor is not a country, or even a city. It's a harbor: a place where boats dock. This is like asking, "What is the capital of Penn Station?"
York Town is located along the York River :)
