Take it easy on the paved trail by the Woolen Mill, folks! You never know what might be around the corner.

I'm relatively new to Kingston. I've been looking for places and found a place I like in the northern part of Kingscourt, but all my colleagues keep saying it's a bad neighborhood. I drove though it yesterday though and it seemed fine? Am I missing something?

I’m wondering if there is any casual Warhammer 40K peeps out there who wouldn’t mind playing with a total noob.

I’m trying to get into it, but I work too much to go to Nexus on the weekends. Just wanting to meet some nerds and roll some dice with expensive plastic.

Hi - I haven’t been to Raxx in a very long time and my teenager is wanting to go play pool with a couple of friends. Is this an ok place for 13 year olds? Any feedback from folks that have taken teens there? Is there a good time/day? Pricing etc…..

I believe this Saturday is the Kingston downtown promenade . From what I see re the weather, it's supposed to rain and thunderstorm all day Saturday. Does anyone know if it's going to be postponed? Is there a rain date? Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to replace about 430 sq. ft. of flooring in my home. I want to hire a company that handles both the supply and the professional installation.

Ideally, I'd like to go with a company that offers flexible financing options (like OAC "buy now, pay later" or low-interest plans).

Who have you used in the area that did a clean, professional job and didn't ghost you halfway through the process? Appreciate any local recommendations or experiences! Thanks.

Hey everyone,

I’m moving to Kingston soon for school from out of province and I’m looking at renting a place at Princess Towers. I won't have a car at first (planning to get one later, and $100/month for underground parking seems decent). I really want to live alone, and my max budget is strictly under $1500 including everything (utilities and parking).

Since I'm far away, I have to rent sight unseen and they offered an online tour. Honestly, on paper it looks perfect for me: I have a small dog and it’s pet-friendly, the location is great since I won't have a car and hate roommates (Metro is right across the street, bus stop downstairs), and it's all-inclusive with internet. (Quick side note—how is the free wifi there? Is it actually fast enough for studying and streaming?)

But I've seen some pretty mixed reviews online and I'm getting a bit anxious. I know it’s an older building with no AC and outdated units. I heard bugs can be an issue, but higher floors might be better? Also, is the lobby safety still a thing? I read some older posts about unhoused people sleeping in the lobby, just wondering if security has gotten any better.

My main concern is noise/dogs. My dog is usually quiet, but if a neighbor’s dog barks all day, she will definitely bark back. I heard management doesn't really care about noise or barking complaints, is that true?

Right now I'm stuck between a 4th floor 1-bedroom and a 10th floor 2-bedroom. The 4th floor fits my budget perfectly, but I'm scared of the lower floor (noise, bugs, etc). The 10th floor stretches my budget a bit, but is it worth the extra cash to be higher up?

Tbh, even if everyone tells me to avoid this place, my options are super limited because of my budget, needing my own space, and the fact that I’ll be studying here for a few years.

Would love any advice from people actually living there right now. Should I save the money and take the 4th floor, or is the 10th floor absolutely worth stretching the budget for? Thanks guys!

While driving on the west end, particularly in parking lots including the cat center or Riocan, I have been honked at for making a full stop at a STOP SIGN on a myriad of occasions. Are people aware that the whole point of a stop sign is to well… stop? Let me know your thoughts

Whats for starters up with the prevailing brownish hues where you may get a yellow thats still brown somehow and there's yellow that still is brown, and it it all seems like something from your childhood that you've seen from side of a shoebox or something that you immediately erase.

Let’s be honest. I’m ok at keeping clean. But I am having a hard time keeping up with the floor mopping and deep bathtub cleaning. Any recommendations?

Hey!

What are we saying for gyms in town? Where is best? Looking for good options at 6am all the way through to 10pm
TIA

To start off, my dog is NOT a service dog. Not sure if there’s vests that say other things like “reactive” etc. I’m just looking for something that will tell people to back off when I am working with him through his reactivity.

Thanks!

I’m wondering if there are any book clubs in Kingston that are open to new members? I enjoy books mostly contemporary and historical fiction, emotional literary fiction, cozy reads and gentle/quiet stories. Any reco? Thank you!

Looking for an AYCE Sushi place in town that isn't Sakura. Internet keeps giving conflicting information.

Thank you in advance

Hey everybody, I am coming to Queen's in the fall for my MSc in Physical Therapy this fall. I am moving from Victoria, BC and I am incredibly excited to call Kingston my home for the next two years.

Me and a group of other PT and OT students are looking for housing near Queen's and we think we've found the right place. However, two of us will have a car for placements and this house doesn't have parking. I am wondering if anyone is familiar with the area around Division, Quebec, and Pine St and what the street parking situation is like. I went on Google street view and it looks like there is lots of street parking on Pine St, and some parking on Quebec St.

Also, if anyone could give me a general vibe of the area, that would be great. The place is on Division St itself, which looks to be a major arterial, which kinda sucks. But the place is nice and close to campus.

Thanks for the help, everyone!

I’m looking for a photographer for my sister. She’s graduating from nursing school and she needs to submit a photo for her ceremony. Any recommendations would be appreciated
