Brooklyn is actually not between any rivers. It is bordered on the east side by the Atlantic Ocean, and on the west side by the East River, which is actually not a true river, but an estuary, or a tidal straight. Unlike a true river, it connects to the ocean on both sides. It flows south from the bay known as the Long Island Sound, down the east side of Manhattan and the west side of Queens and Brooklyn, into the Atlantic Ocean.
