Kenilworth Avenue is a Lower City arterial road in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. It starts off at the Kenilworth Traffic Circle and Kenilworth Access, a mountain-access road at the base of the Niagara Escarpment (mountain) and is a two-way street throughout stretching northward through the city's North End industrial neighbourhood where it then flows underneath the Burlington Street bridge and right into Dofasco's (steel company) Industrial Park.

Dominion Steel Casting Company (Dofasco) established in 1912. Later named Dominion Foundries and Steel, the company merged with its subsidiary, Hamilton Steel Wheel Company in 1917. The name was officially changed to Dofasco Inc. in 1980. In 1912, National Steel Car is established in Hamilton. Builders of reliable freight and passenger train cars and equipment. Also by 1912, with 4.5 miles of dockage, Hamilton is second only to Montreal in shipping.

Firestone Tire and Rubber Company of Canada (1919–1988) was based just east of Kenilworth Avenue North on Burlington Street with neighbouring National Steel Car on its left.

Uli's Stairs are stone steps that connect the mountain brow to the Rail Trail. They were made by a local man named Ulrich, otherwise known as Uli. The city sees his steps as a risk to public safety. The city has a set of steps made of steel nearby at the end of Kimberly Drive near Kenilworth Avenue that go from the lower city to the Escarpment Rail Trail and the Bruce Trail, and another set of stairs a few hundred feet east of those connecting the Rail Trail and the Mountain Brow at Margate Avenue.

The Bruce Trail cuts through the city along the Niagara Escarpment (mountain) and used by many locals for a full day's hike. The Trail is 430 miles long and starts at Niagara Falls, passes through Hamilton and ends at the Bruce Peninsula. Hikers are led to scenic gorges, hidden waterfalls and places of quiet charm.

Pier 23 is home to Lakeshore Sand, which processes foundry and glass-making sand, casting and water filtration sand, and bunker sand supplied to nearly 40 area golf courses.
