As of the 2010 United States Census, the borough's population was 15,392,〔 reflecting an increase of 211 (+1.4%) from the 15,181 counted in the 2000 Census, which had in turn increased by 1,391 (+10.1%) from the 13,790 counted in the 1990 Census.〔(Table 7. Population for the Counties and Municipalities in New Jersey: 1990, 2000 and 2010 ), New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development, February 2011. Accessed June 28, 2012.〕 As the site of Holy Cross Cemetery, which has interred almost 290,000 individuals since its establishment in 1915, and with another Jewish cemetery including several thousand more burials, North Arlington has more than 20 times as many dead people than living, with more burials than the living population of Newark, the state's largest city. Holy Cross has an average of 2,600 interments each year, of which about 65% are burials, with the remainder split between entombment in mausoleums or crypts and burial of cremated remains. Expansion of the mausoleum will bring its capacity to nearly 36,000 interments, with the cemetery's total capacity of about 750,000 expected to last past the year 2090. The cemetery covers and was assessed at $185 million, though its non-profit status means that the municipality generates no tax revenue from a property that covers almost an eighth of the borough's land area.〔Levin, Jay. ("North Arlington's sprawling cemetery a somber source of civic pride" ), ''The Record (Bergen County)'', August 18, 2013. Accessed August 19, 2013. "For every living soul in North Arlington, there are 20 who have ceased to be.... Some 289,600 people are interred in Holy Cross, which sprawls over 208 manicured acres, one-eighth of the borough’s area. Several blocks away are several thousand graves in a small Jewish cemetery. That makes North Arlington, population 15,500, the resting place of close to 300,000 people — greater than the population of Newark and equivalent to that of Cincinnati."〕〔(Holy Cross Cemetery & Mausoleum ), Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Newark. Accessed August 19, 2013.〕 North Arlington was formed by a referendum passed on March 9, 1896, and incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 11, 1896, from area taken from Union Township.〔Snyder, John P. (''The Story of New Jersey's Civil Boundaries: 1606-1968'' ), Bureau of Geology and Topography; Trenton, New Jersey; 1969. p. 82. Accessed June 28, 2012.〕 It was called North Arlington because it was north of the Arlington section of Kearny, which had been named from the Arlington Station on the Erie Railroad.〔(History ), Town of Kearny. Accessed December 14, 2013.〕 ==History== North Arlington was originally part of an area called "New Barbadoes Neck".〔(From the Hackensacks to the Dutch ), Lyndhurst Historical Society. Accessed December 15, 2011. "Since Major Kingsland was stationed on Barbados and the shape of the territory he purchased here was a neck of land between two rivers, he named his acquisition 'New Barbadoes Neck.' In June 1671, Nathaniel Kingsland sold the southern third of New Barbadoes Neck (Harrison, East Newark, Kearny and North Arlington) to William Sanford for 200 pounds."〕 Copper was mined at the Schuyler Copper Mine here in the 18th and 19th centuries.〔(Schuyler Copper Mine ), accessed December 29, 2006.〕 It was one of the first true copper mines in North America. In 1755, the first steam engine in North American was assembled in North Arlington.〔(NA History ), Borough of North Arlington. Accessed September 10, 2015. "In the 1750's, it was the site of the first working steam engine in America, used to pump water from the copper mine located there."〕 The Newcomen steam engine was imported from England by John Schuyler to pump water out of his copper mine. He hired engineer Josiah Hornblower to assemble the machinery.〔(Manuscript Group 1508, Stoudinger-Alofsen-Fulton Drawings ), New Jersey Historical Society. Accessed December 29, 2006.〕 North Arlington, together with Lyndhurst and Rutherford was the site of the EnCap project, an effort to remediate landfills on the site and construct homes and golf courses on top of the cleaned up site. On May 27, 2008, the New Jersey Meadowlands Commission terminated its agreement with EnCap Golf Holdings, the company that had the contract to redevelop the site, after the company had missed targets to clean up the landfills as part of the project.〔Belson, Ken.
