The East River is a tidal strait. It's a strait in that it is a "water passage" between Manhattan and Long Island. Because of tides, it appears to flow like a river. It's not an actual river because it connects on both ends to the ocean. Rivers flow from inland fresh water sources (such as mountain runoff or springs). The Hudson River, on Manhattan's West side, is a true river. It flows downstream from the North. Accordingly, the East River is salt water, the Hudson is fresh water. The East River is not an estuary, though--an estuary is the point of mingling of a river and the ocean. The mouth of the Hudson, though, while perhaps technically forming an estuary, flows around various islands and is channeled to the point that the distinction isn't worth making, as long as you ignore Spuyten Duyvil. You could say the East River is associated with an estuary, but it isn't one itself. One other thing: while the Hudson River does carry fresh water from upstate, the salt water from the Atlantic mingles upstream as far as Poughkeepsie, depending on tides, so it's pretty salty when it hits Manhattan.
The Amazon river flows into the Amazon estuary, which leads out to the Atlantic Ocean.
I'm sorry, I'm not quite sure what your question is. Are you asking, "Which river flows down the East Side of Manhattan, and into the Atlantic Ocean?" If so, then, the answer is the East River. However, the East River is not a true river, as it connects to the ocean on both sides. It is an estuary or tidal strait. The East River 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, and into the Atlantic Ocean. The Hudson River (which IS a true river) flows down the west side of Manhattan, and into the Atlantic Ocean.
Via the Shannon estuary into the Atlantic Ocean
The Brooklyn Bridge crosses the East River, which is technically not a river, but an estuary, or tidal strait. 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, and into the Atlantic Ocean.
Yes it is the largest estuary in the United States streching 200 miles from the Susquehanna River to the Atlantic Ocean.
The Amazon River of South America empties into the Atlantic Ocean.
It flows into the Atlantic Ocean at the Shannon Estuary and Limerick City stands at the point where the river water meets the sea water of the estuary.
The East River, which is actually not a river, but an estuary, or a tidal strait. Unlike a true river, it connects to the ocean on both sides. It flows south from the Long Island Sound, down the east side of Manhattan and the west side of Queens and Brooklyn, into the Atlantic Ocean.
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.

Portugal's capital city at Lisbon [Lisboa] is on the Atlantic Ocean. Lisbon also is located at the point where the Tagus River [Rio Tejo] flows into the Atlantic. Mainland Portugal's Atlantic coastline totals 586 miles [943 kilometers].
