Why is Plainfield known as the Queen City?
The "Queen City" nickname arose in the second half of the 19th century. Plainfield had been developing a reputation during this period as having a climate that was beneficial for respiratory and other ailments. Between the gentle mountain air, the natural springs, and the cool breezes coming in from the Atlantic Ocean, Plainfield became a summertime resort for city dwellers. At this time, Denver, Colorado, another environmentally healthful city, was known as the "Queen City of the Plains." In an effort to publicize the healthy climate of Plainfield, they began to use the slogan "Colorado of the East" in regard to Plainfield.
