Then.  Baldwin and Augusta.  NE corner.  I can't remember where I got this picture but its accompanying notes date it as 1964 - I find that hard to believe.  1954 would seem more believable.  Did it make any economic sense to have a horse as a means of transportation by the standards of 1964?



Now.  April 2012.


Kensington Market, still referred to by my 80+ year old relations as the Jewish Market, is, along with the Baldwin Strip to the east, (between McCaul and Beverley) one of the jewels of Toronto - small in scale, enclosed and intimate, pedestrian and bike friendly, lined with small independent businesses of quality without pretensions.

When I feel pretentious, there's always Pusateri's.  :)
