The Neighborhood:
Since Kensington’s a hub for artists, naturally there’s always some kind of performance happening on the streets. The area’s got its fair share of buskers, sketch artists and just straight up eccentric characters that you can get to know. Wandering around the streets, especially on weekends in the summer, is prime time for people watching. 

So you got takeout, wondering where to eat it? Or maybe you’re just tired of shopping and want to relax in the sun… a park is the solution, and Kensington’s home to a couple. The main one is Bellevue Square Park, off Augusta Ave. New additions to the park include a sweet new playground, a new water feature, better lawn space, and a wooden deck for easy sitting. There’s also Sonya’s Parkette a cozy little nook with a playground that makes the perfect refuge from the city’s busy streets.
