kensington photos

kensington has a great variety of homes, many of which were built in the late 1920's. check out some photos of the neighborhood.

i really enjoy walking the streets of kensington and checking out the houses and gardens. over the past several years many homes have been renovated. the northern part of town is more suburban, with larger homes and winding roads. but the section around and to the south of adams has a standard city grid layout. it's great for biking since the cars don't travel too fast, and i can get to balboa park or downtown within 15-20 minutes. i'd be afraid to bike in many of the suburban communities of san diego with their wide 60 mph feeder streets. of course, it's been too hot to bike recently, but you can comfortably bike around here at least 3/4 of the year.
