Commemorating Centennial Homes in Kenilworth
Nearly fifty of Kenilworth’s houses built between 1890 and 1924 are no longer standing.
Of that total, about half have been razed since 2000. Preserving older homes is vital to securing Kenilworth’s legacy as an architecturally significant community. The Kenilworth Historical Society’s Centennial Home Plaque program offers a tangible way to commemorate these treasured structures. By displaying a beautiful plaque near your home’s entrance, you declare it a living piece of Kenilworth’s past.
We welcome all residents to contact the Kenilworth Historical Society to find out more about their home’s history and encourage eligible homeowners to purchase a Centennial Home Plaque.
