Kingston City Council gives go ahead for Capitol Condos project
Kingston City Council unanimously passed a motion on Tuesday, Apr. 6, 2021 to endorse the settlement on the proposed Capitol Condos project at 223 Princess Street.
The Capitol Condos project will see a nine-storey condominium building at the former Capitol Movie Theatre in downtown Kingston. Plans, revisions, and conversations have been taking place since the 2015 announcement of a 18-storey highrise at this site.
After much deliberation, IN8, the developer of the residential building proposed for the site, Building Kingston’s Future Inc. and the Frontenac Heritage Foundation signed Minutes of Settlement during the last week of March, 2021. The proposal was put before Council, and after a few brief questions for Paige Agnew, Commissioner of Community Services with the City of Kingston, the motion passed.
