Township Land Since 1839, Renamed in 1906
Solomon Wright II first settled the land that became Comstock Park in 1839, as part of what was then North Walker Township; Alpine Township was created from its northern half in 1847, and the community took the name Comstock Park in 1906 in honor of former U.S. Representative Charles C. Comstock.
Drainage Across Two Overlapping Townships
Comstock Park's location spanning both Alpine Township and Plainfield Charter Township means drainage and grading standards can shift depending on which township originally governed a given parcel, a detail worth knowing before assuming a water-damage source is isolated to one property.
