South of Cross Roads and west of South Camp Road is the area more generally referred to as "Down Town". A part of this area along the waterfront and north to North Street forms a almost uniform grid. A bird's eye view reveals the dormant structures, and a potential lost.
Ironically, even with all the "desolation" downtown remains a central hub in this land we love. There are several corporate headquarters, Government ministries and offices, and cultural interests nestled in the grid-like conundrum that we simply call "Down Town".

These are truly amazing. A refreshing and positive eye on the jewel of our capital. This feeds into the humming dreamy excitement over the possible rebirth of a downtown scene that seems to be infecting all hopeful Kingstonians. Thanks for this.
