It sits between Fishtown to the south and Kensington proper to the north. | q2 = Is East Kensington part of Fishtown? | a2 = East Kensington is a distinct neighborhood, though it's often grouped with Fishtown due to spillover gentrification.

New apartment construction, artist spaces, restaurants, and bars have opened, with rising property values and changing demographics. }}
