HISTORY:

In 1892 the New Orange Industrial Association was formed by a group of Elmira, New York, developers. The Association purchased thirty farms in the Cranford-Union area in order to develop housing for low, middle and upper income families. The town was laid out in a grid pattern, which attracted the New York and New Orange Railroad. In 1897, the railroad extended itself into Kenilworth in order to entice industrial development. The following year, Upsala college moved from Brooklyn to "New Orange". In 1906, the New Orange Industrial Association changed its name to Kenilworth Realty Company, from which the town derived its name. Today, Kenilworth is an industrial-residential community, with a large variety of shopping stores along "the Boulevard". *1990 Census figures
