Kingston sits where the lake becomes the river and was briefly the country’s capital, which is why the limestone public buildings are grander than the population would suggest. It has a major university, a military college and a long institutional history, and the waterfront is central to how the city works.
The downtown is compact and walkable and most small handovers happen there. The student district is dense and street parking is limited, so for furniture agree access and a time when the streets are quieter.
