The part of this street west of Judicial Street was laid out as Kenwood Street in 1903 in the Grandview plan by Clifford B. Harmon.[1] Kenwood Street was extended west of Judicial Street the following year in a plan of lots by L. C. Wick.[2]
After Allegheny City was annexed by Pittsburgh in 1907,[3] the name Kenwood Street conflicted with Kenwood Avenue on the North Side. Over 900 streets were renamed in 1910 to fix such duplications; Kenwood Street was changed to Kambach Street.[4] By an oversight, this city ordinance renamed only the part of Kenwood Street in the original Grandview plan. The portion in L. C. Wick's plan was changed to Kambach Street in 1918.[5]
