The Borough of Fair Lawn, one of the 70 towns that comprise Bergen County,
is home to approximately 32,000 residents and its history can be traced back to
the Lenni-Lenapi tribes.
Within Fair Lawn's
boundaries is a unique community called Radburn. One of the first modern planned communities in the United States,
it was intended originally to be a self-sufficient entity known as "Town
for the Motor Age." The planners, Clarence S. Stein and Henry Wright,
enlisted the practical aid of financier Alexander Bing who had organized the
City Housing Corporation in 1924. Bing's enthusiasm brought his corporation to New Jersey, and Radburn
was born in 1928.
Fair Lawn boasts
over a dozen recreational facilities and parks numerous houses of worship of
many different faiths, a top-notch school system and a brand new
state-of-the-art Community Center.
