1912 map showing Claremont Park and its relationship to the larger Crotona Park, 1/2 mile to the east.  Visible immediately to the east of Claremont Park is Mill Brook, running approximately along the route of Webster Avenue and the eponymous Brook Avenue.  Also visible to the east of the park is Claremont Park Station on the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad (now the New Haven line of the Metro North Railroad), at the intersection of Wendover Avenue (now Claremont Parkway) and Park Avenue.  Note that Park Avenue is not named after Claremont Park; it is the continuation of Park Avenue in Manhattan.  Neither the brook nor the rail station exist anymore.
