Sungai East
East River adalah sebuah selat pasang di New York City. Sungai selat ini menghubungkan Upper New York Bay di ujung selatannya ke Long Island Sound di ujung utaranya. Sungai ini memisahkan Long Island (termasuk borough Queens dan Brooklyn) dari pulau Manhattan dan Bronx di daratan Amerika Utara. Merujuk pada hubungannya ke Long Island Sound, sungai ini dulunya dikenal sebagai Sound River.[1]
