dbo:abstract
  • The First River, in the state of New Jersey in the United States, is a subterranean river and the first main tributary of the Passaic River encountered while travelling upstream from its mouth at Newark Bay. Beginning at the confluence of Mill Brook and Branch Brook (near the present Skating Center in Branch Brook Park), the First River flowed parallel to Seventh Avenue and Clay Street, discharging into the Passaic River in the vicinity of the Clay Street bridge. The First River was also known as Mill Brook, having supported several mills, including grist mills for the earliest settlers of Newark in the 17th century. From 1863 to 1890 the brook was culvertised and now flows underground through two culverts, each six feet nine inches (206 cm) high by nine feet three inches (282 cm) wide until discharging into the Passaic. The brook once flowed through, and now flows under, what is now Branch Brook Park in the city of Newark. (en)
  • El río First, en el estado de Nueva Jersey en los Estados Unidos de América, es el principal afluente del río Passaic. Se puede encontrar al desplazarse corriente arriba del Passaic desde su desembocadura en la . Sin embargo, en el siglo XIX fue completamente enterrado y ahora fluye bajo tierra hasta descargar en el Passaic. Atravesaba, ahora bajo tierra, lo que ahora es el parque Branch Brook en la ciudad de Newark. También se le conoce como Mill Brook, al haber proporcionado fuerza para una serie de molinos de agua para la producción de harina en los primeros asentamientos de Newark en el siglo XVII. Las tareas para cubrir el río comenzaron en 1863, y fueron completadas en 1890. En la actualidad fluye a través de una serie de tuberías de 205'74 centímetros de altura y 281'84 centímetros de grosor. (es)
