The *first* street, down by the river, is Front Street. Then come 2nd (known locally as "Two Street"), 3rd, 4th,...12th, 13th, Broad, 15th, 16th,... Broad, by the way, is the main North-South artery. City Hall is at the intersection of Broad and Market. So that's one city with a Second Street but no first. Just thought you'd like to know. Billie Goldstein npois!bsg American Bell Neptune NJ
