History

Northfield was incorporated in July 1965. One of the factors in incorporation was the threat of annexation by nearby St. Matthews. The city is located on a subdivision of the former 3,500 acre Glenview horse farm.

Northfield was one of the hardest hit neighborhoods when Louisville was hit by an F4 tornado on April 3, 1974. This tornado was part of the 1974 Super Outbreak of 148 tornadoes that hit 13 U.S. states and one Canadian province.
