SCOTCH PLAINS-FANWOOD “Kramer Manor” is the captivating history of a Black Community located right here in Fanwood and Scotch Plains. It proudly marked its centennial in 1924 and, less than a year later, it celebrated another historic designation— inclusion in the New Jersey Black Heritage Trail. Kramer Manor, a neighborhood comprising approximately one hundred households, has a rich history. For most of its 100+ years it stood as an all-Black enclave, but today it has transformed into a thriving and desirable multicultural community of single-family homes and green spaces.
