Kingston City Hall Kingston City Hall and market was begun in 1842, a year after Kingston had been named capital of Canada. Designed by George Browne Sr., one of Canada's leading architects of the 19th century, it was an ambitious plan for the period. All civic offices - the town hall, municipal offices, post office, custom house, police station, market hall and mechanics' institute - were to be housed in one massive complex. Its heroic scale dwarfed all surrounding buildings and reflected the pride of the city fathers in the new status and future growth of their city.
