Geographically the 16 square miles of East Greenwich is located in the center of the state. It is the eighth oldest town in the state and was home to many early American Patriots. The town was established in the 1600's. The land upon which East Greenwich sits was originally owned by the Pequot Indians and was acquired by King Charles II in 1644. The General Assembly incorporated the Town in 1677.
The Town is bounded on the East by Narragansett Bay and four hills roll up from the coast to the West Greenwich town line. The downtown area of East Greenwich was initially settled to support the surrounding farming area. As the town grew, so did the commercial center. The protected cove brought trade ships from the far corners of the world and gave safe harbor to local fishermen.
As East Greenwich grew as a trade center so did the need for goods and services, both for the townsfolk and those passing through. Industry flourished with the manufacture of textiles, brushes, machinery and and shipbuilding. This has left behind a legacy of fine historic buildings for people of the 20th century to enjoy. The town of East Greenwich is proud of its' heritage and its' National Historic District.

Town in Westchester, NY that thinks they are the shit. The town is divided into two main classes. You have the people who think they are black yet hate black people with a passion and are as white as a piece of paper. Then there are the skaters who are often seen hanging out in front of Stop and Shop, Blockbuster, Exxon and in the lot behind the Eastchester library. Both classes are stoners and drunks that get fucked up every day. Often seen feuding with people from their rival and superior neighbor Tuckahoe.
You know the town is weak when it takes 40 of their guys to take on 10 from another town like Tuckahoe.
The people in the town are the definition of wigger.
I bet you $100 to find one person in that town that doesnt drink or smoke.

Get the eastchester mug.A nice town, probably could also hold the name Chindia for the amount of Chinese and Indian people who live there, also home to nearly 5% of all jews in the world. Home of EB Square, an L-Shaped mall where really all anyone ever does is do tons of laps around it. Probably the only place where when a kid wants a cigarette and will refuse to call it one, many times a cigarette is referred to a bogey which confuses the hell out of anyone who this is asked to. Also it's home to a large amount of freshman and sophies due to the easiness of getting there. Very often you will see kids from Old Bridge, and more recently those pot heads from Spotswood. It is also home to Mega Movies, a huge dissapointment when it comes to movie theaters, make sure when you want to sit down you sit in a small group not by Nathans otherwise you may get into some trouble with the management. When you're walking around the mall there is a whopping 95% chance that you will run into a mall cop that will have a problem with what you're doing, whether it'd be sitting down for too long or not moving (keep your eyes out for the black haired mall cop, don't have a staring contest with him he always cheats with his laser) Most people once they're done with the mall just leave or head outside to smoke some weed. Finally, you will probably never see more people wearing those North Face jackets with a million pockets all over them anywhere else. Great sightseeing for those who never get outside.
"Come on guys keep it moving"

Get the east brunswick mug.The act of masturbating until your about to ejaculate, and then suddenly stopping and not finishing. This is usually done the day before a sporting event, and is believed to increase the performance of the athlete who performs this act. The name "East German" originates from the 1980 East German Olympic team who allegedly did this before each event.
