History

Then, on October 2, 2002, Lori Ann Lewis-Rivera became the fifth victim of the snipers who terrorized the Washington area that month, while cleaning her auto at a Kensington gas station. developer Brainard Warner began purchasing land parcels to build a planned Victorian era community, complete with church, library, and a local newspaper. This early settlement was first known as Knowles Station. The historic core of Kensington was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, as the Kensington Historic District in 1980. Initially Kensington was a summer refuge for Washington, D.C., residents wishing to escape the capital's humid summers. Protesters arrived at the parade en masse, including hundreds of Santas riding everything from motorcycles to fire trucks.
