Book excerpt: With its peaceful cove and captivating mountain views, Kingston has long been a charming community on Puget Sound west of Seattle. Dubbed "Little City by the Sea," "Gateway to the Olympic Mountains," and "Ferry Town," Kingston has an extensive history beyond its boating appeal. It was once a seasonal fishing and food gathering spot for indigenous people, a logging camp, and a planned location for a major resort. In the 1900s, it became a productive farming community, a smugglers' hideout, a strategic military site, an artists' haven, and a summer retreat for Seattle city dwellers. Today, as a major ferry port, Kingston is still a quaint village of about 2,500 people--with an hourly traffic jam. Approximately four million people pass through Kingston annually on the Washington State Ferries or stop in Kingston's delightful marina and nearby shops.

  • Release : 2001
  • ISBN : 9780738509389
  • Pages : 132 pages

Download or read book Kingston written by Norman P. Tucker and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2001 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the time it incorporated as an independent town in 1726, Kingston had, for a century, been the prestigious "North Precinct" of the Plymouth Colony, where Pilgrim leaders such as Gov. William Bradford and Dr. Samuel Fuller established their farms and second homes. Residents were granted authority by the Massachusetts General Court in 1717 to be set off from Plymouth and, in that year, Maj. John Bradford, grandson of the governor, gave the new precinct fourteen acres of what is now centralKingston. Kingston documents the rich and varied cultural, social, and commercial histories of the town and its inhabitants through the sharing of a remarkable legacy of historical and topographical photographic images. Within these pages, you will see how early Kingston prospered because of the productive lands of the Jones River and its tributaries, how iron ore was mined in the town's bogs, and how some three hundred vessels were built in the Jones River yards in the nineteenth century. In Kingston, you also will learn of the Old Colony Railroad, which came to town in 1845, and of the railroad's first two presidents, local residents Col. John Sever and Alexander Holmes.

  • Author : Patricia O'Reilly Murphy
  • Publisher : Arcadia Publishing
  • Release : 2013
  • ISBN : 0738598267
  • Pages : 129 pages

Download or read book Kingston written by Patricia O'Reilly Murphy and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Located midway up the legendary Hudson River, Kingston has its own storied past. In the Stockade National Historic District in uptown Kingston where the city was founded in 1658, many of the sturdy limestone houses built by the early European settlers still stand. Downtown Kingston offers a view of the thriving maritime village that mushroomed on the waterfront in the 19th century when the Delaware and Hudson Canal opened there in 1828. The storefronts, homes, and churches of the Rondout National Historic District are the legacy of the immigrants and entrepreneurs who poured in hoping to ride the tide of prosperity promised by the canal. Midtown reflects the pride of the new city of Kingston after the two villages united in 1872 and a civic center and robust industrial district grew on former grazing fields.

Book Kingston and Ulster Townships

Download or read book Kingston and Ulster Townships written by Susan B. Wick and published by Arcadia Library Editions. This book was released on 2009-07 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The town of Kingston, incorporated in 1667, is the oldest township in Ulster County and shares its history with the town of Ulster. Kingston was comprised of the diverse hamlets of Eddyville, Flatbush, Lake Katrine, and Dutch Settlement, with water-powered mills, icehouses, and truck and dairy farms. Ulster, the youngest township in the county, remained largely rural and agricultural until just after World War II, when IBM Corporation opened its Kingston area facility, bringing with it highways, housing, and retail giants. Lacking a geographic center, Ulster Township instead has taken on the identity of the business hub and mainstay of commerce for the entire county. Through vintage photographs, Kingston and Ulster Townships explores the growth of these proud communities.
