Clason Point<\/strong> (pronounced CLAW-son) is one of the three peninsulas that extend into the East River. The area around the house may also be referred to as Harding Park. Named after Harding Park<\/strong> which is a small neighborhood park just two blocks from the house. Just as the native Siwanoys called the area, Snakapins, land between two waters; Clason Point is sandwiched in between Hunts Point and Throgg’s Neck, separated by the Bronx River<\/a> and Pugsley Creek\/Westchester Creek<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In reality, Clason Point is a land in between three waters because the East River<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0(which flows into the Long Island sound) forms the southern boundary of the neighborhood. Across the East River is Queens and Long Island.<\/p>\n

Clason Point is mostly a residential neighborhood. It is quiet for the most part and has a diverse demographics but without argument, a Latino majority.<\/p>\n
