The Kenwood Historic District is located north west of downtown Enid, Oklahoma and is named for Kenwood Boulevard, a diagonal street created in 1894. The neighborhood encompasses {{convert|160|acre|km2}} of housing created between 1895 and 1915.[2] Houses in the district were designed by A.A. Crowell and R.W. Shaw, and feature American Foursquare styled homes.[3]

History

N. E. Sisson and Maurice A. Wogan both laid claim to the land in the Land Run of 1893.[1] Following a period of dispute, Sisson relinquished his claim, and the land became known as the Wogan Block.[1] The land was the first platted area for the city of Enid.[4] In 1895, Wogan sold the land to the Kenwood Land and Development Company, owned by Harrison Lee and his son-in-law Territorial Attorney General W.O. Cromwell.[1] In the early days of Enid, the neighborhood became a home for wealthy businessmen, including Territorial Governor Frank Frantz, and his brothers, Montgomery, William, and Edmund Frantz.[1]
