Places to stay in Orange, New Jersey

Newark, but it was originally known as "Newark Mountains". On June 7, 1780, the townspeople of Newark Mountains officially voted to adopt the name Orange. At the time, there was a significant number of people in favor of secession from Newark. However, this would not occur until November 27, 1806, when the territory now encompassing all of the Oranges was finally detached. On April 13, 1807, the first government was elected, but not until March 13, 1860 was Orange officially incorporated as a city. Immediately, the new city began fragmenting into smaller communities, primarily because of local disputes about the costs of establishing paid police, fire, and street departments. South Orange was organized on January 26, 1861; Fairmount on March 11, 1862; East Orange on March 4, 1863; and West Orange on March 14, 1863. Local dining options include El Salvadore Restaurant, Los Braceros Mexican Restaurant, Ben's West Indian & American Restaurant, and China King.
