The Crane House and Historic YWCA is a federal-style home located at 110 Orange Road in Montclair, Essex County, New Jersey.

The house has had a rich history and was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 14, 1973, for its significance in architecture, conservation, and industry.

[5] Today, Bloomfield Avenue, which runs West from Newark through the Township of Montclair into Verona, New Jersey, is part of the original Newark-Pompton Turnpike.

Documentation shows that Israel Crane owned at least five enslaved individuals: Bill, Joe, Jack, Bett,[6] and Dine.

James went on to make changes to the structure of the house, incorporating many Greek Revival elements including columns in the front; a flat, rectangular roof; and door jambs.

After a few changes in ownership throughout the years, the old Crane House fell into the hands of the YWCA (Young Women's Christian Association) in 1920.

The Israel house became a place where African-American women could stay in Montclair while looking for domestic jobs or connections within their own community.

As stated by the website for the Montclair Fund for Women, the YWCA was dissolved in 2001 when the number of participants decreased and maintaining the building became too expensive.

Special items on display include a painted bedroom set owned by Paul Revere IV (1816), a harp made by Sebastian Erard (1827), and a William and Mary highboy (1740).

They formed the Montclair Historical Society and worked to restore the building to what it would have looked like in both Israel and James Crane's times.
