A unique feature occurs at the Hackensack-Maywood line. To the south, you see Coles Brook flowing under a bridge; but to the left, you see a street called The Esplanade. The wide street was built atop a conduit carrying the brook to Passaic Street, CR 62, where it re-emerges.
The official NJDOT straight-line diagram inventories CR 44 from east to west, but I have reversed it for consistency.
