History[edit]
During the rebellion on the Lord Ruler, Lord Renoux, actually OreSeur, proposed to Vin to go buy a new earring instead of the one she wears from Kenton Street. Vin opposed the idea and chose to keep her earring[1]
Prior to the Collapse, it housed shops for the nobility, including tailoring and jewelry shops.[1][3] After the Collapse, Elend Venture abolished the restrictions on skaa merchants and wages. As a result, Kenton Street became a lively market, with merchants employing criers and jugglers to try to attract attention for their wares.[3]
During the Siege of Luthadel, Tindwyl took Allrianne and Vin dress-shopping on Kenton Street. At the time, Vin noted that the merchants were charging as high as five boxings for a box of old apples.[4] Later during the siege, Elend ordered Hammond to gather the Kenton Street clothing merchants and make them come see the skaa refugees, hoping that the poor conditions would convince the merchants to lower their prices.[5]
