The start of construction at a big hole in Kingston's downtown is still six months away.
The vacant lot at the corner of Bagot and Queen streets is the future site of a new nine-storey condominium building but a year after the project was announced the big hole remains.

About one-third of the one- and two-bedroom and bachelor apartments have been reserved and a company spokesman said he expects those reservations to translate into sales in the coming weeks.
