Editing Kendall Park, New Jersey (section)

==History==
Kendall Park gets its name from its builder, Herbert Kendall, who developed a [[planned community]] of 1,500 houses between 1956 and 1961.<ref>Cheslow, Jerry. [https://www.nytimes.com/1992/11/22/realestate/if-you-re-thinking-of-living-in-south-brunswick.html "If You're Thinking of Living in: South Brunswick"], ''[[The New York Times]]'', November 22, 1992. Accessed November 29, 2012.</ref> Kendall's development was built in three stages: the initial development in 1956-7 (between New Road and Sand Hill Road), the Constable development in 1959 (south of New Road), followed by the Greenbrook development (north of Sand Hill Road) in 1961. The initial development offered two styles of three-bedroom, 1½ bath ranch-style homes, mostly built on 1/3 acre lots, typically selling for around $16,000 in 1957. The subsequent sections offered a wider selection of styles, including four-bedroom ranches and four-bedroom colonial-style homes. The development of Kendall Park doubled the population of South Brunswick Township and marked the beginning of its transformation from a rural farming area to a suburban bedroom community. Several other nearby tracts developed after Kendall's original development are also part of the CDP.

The Hoagland-Clark House, which dates back to the late 18th century, is a remnant of the earlier era, and was identified by Preservation New Jersey as one of the most vulnerable landmarks in New Jersey.<ref>[http://www.preservationnj.org/site/ExpEng/index.php?/ten_most/index_detail/Hoagland-Clark_House 10 Most Endangered Historic Sites in New Jersey 2010: Hoagland-Clark House] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304062252/http://www.preservationnj.org/site/ExpEng/index.php?%2Ften_most%2Findex_detail%2FHoagland-Clark_House |date=2016-03-04 }}, Preservation New Jersey.
