History

Map of North Brunswick, New Jersey, 1876. Sucker Brook flows to Lawrence Brook below Milltown at the upper right.

An 1876 map of North Brunswick shows that Sucker Brook at one time transversed the present day U.S. 1, Milltown Road, 4th, 3rd, 2nd, 1st Avenues, and Allgair Avenue, and ended near Nassau Street east of George's Road.

gollark: What do you mean by "character"?
gollark: That could be interesting, I don't know if there's been much work on doing simulation stuff on dedicated hardware.
gollark: *Does* it actually simulate individual particles?
gollark: Although they're still confusing to me now and I can't make them work right half the time. I had a nuclear reactor stuck at half power because the water pipes weren't optimized enough.
gollark: Factorio recently improved the fluids a lot, since they were kind of bad and confusing.
