The Market is an older neighbourhood and one of the city's most well-known. In November 2006, it became a National Historic Site. Robert Fulford wrote in 1999 that "Kensington today is as much a legend as a district". The (partly) outdoor market has probably been photographed more often than any other site in Toronto. Its approximate borders are College St. on the north, Spadina Ave. on the east, Dundas St. W. to the south, and Bellevue Ave. to the west.
