Book Your RideAbout Kenilworth — The Village Platted for Sunlight
In 1889, Joseph Sears purchased 223.6 acres of North Shore land for $150,300 with a specific goal: building a suburb that escaped the crowded, unsanitary conditions of 19th-century Chicago. His plan, carried out through the Kenilworth Company, was unusually deliberate for its time — streets were platted at angles specifically calculated to maximize sunlight reaching every home, utilities were run underground decades before that was standard practice, and no alleys or fences were permitted anywhere in the village.
Architect George W. Maher, a contemporary of Frank Lloyd Wright, designed roughly 37 of the village’s early homes along with much of its public face — the entry fountain, stone benches, planter urns, bridges, and the entry pylons that still greet visitors today. The village reached the 300 residents required for incorporation in 1896, and much of Maher’s civic design from that era remains visible and in use.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it true Kenilworth’s streets were designed around sunlight?
Yes — founder Joseph Sears had the village’s streets platted at angles specifically meant to maximize the sunlight reaching each home, an unusually deliberate choice for a suburb planned in 1889. Utilities were also run underground decades before that became standard practice.
Does the $60 rate change depending on which part of Kenilworth I’m in?
No — $60 is the flat sedan rate for any pickup within Kenilworth village limits, regardless of the exact address. It does change if you choose an SUV, minivan, or black car instead of a sedan.
How long does the drive from Kenilworth to O’Hare usually take?
Published estimates put it at roughly 21 miles and 30–45 minutes under typical conditions, longer during weekday rush hour or winter weather.
Can I book a car seat for a flight out of Kenilworth?
Yes, for $10 extra, though availability is limited — reserve it when you book rather than asking last minute.
