Just up the road from Kensington Market is the intersection of College and Spadina. It is this intersection which, at least in part, inspired the song, All's Quiet On The Inner City Front.
It would appear from the lyrics that he lived there at the time, so perhaps a more accurate attribution would be that circumstances in his life while he lived near the intersection inspired the song (how's that for getting picky? :-) )
In the Rumours of Glory 1980-1990 songbook, Bruce describes the song as being about a "summer night at Spadina and College".
