The development of the Chicago and Eastern Illinois Railroad was a big reason why the community was developed since it was the site of a depot, coal yard, and a place for switching tracks back in the 1870's and 1880's. Glenwood was incoporated in 1903, and can be reached by Interstate 394 runs east of Glenwood, while Illinois 1 is to the west. Train service on Metra is also available for those who need to come into Chicago. The Glenwood School for Boys opened up in in 1887 as the Illinois Industrial Training School for Boys in north suburban Norwood Park, which was opened by Robert Todd Lincoln (son of the 16th President, Abraham Lincoln) and Oscar Dudley, an agent from the Illinois Humane Society, after finding that there were more neglected children on the streets than stray animals. The school was a residential facility for boys only to learn the trades, while also receiving military-style training. Two years later, the school moved to its current location south of Chicago when board member Milton George donated his farm, Rural Glen.
