Kingston, Ontario buildings may be sold.

The Prison for Women was a Recognized Federal Heritage Building.Kingston City Councillor Bill Glover is trying to save the Kingston Pen:
   "It's very, very important that City Council designates Kingston Penitentiary under the provincial legislation to give Council the power to protect this historic property...because federal designation as a National Historic Site of Canada, while it's important, does not protect the property after it passes from public ownership to private hands." From: Frontenac Heritage Foundation, Volume 40, Number 1 - January 2013. 

After I found out that the Kingston Penitentiary was being decommissioned, I wrote the following letter to Huffington Post Canada:
  "The City of Kingston is fiercely protective of its heritage buildings, cultural sites and waterfront---read the Internet document "City of Kingston Official Plan - Section 7 -Cultural Heritage Resources (2010)". The City will use all measures possible to protect its "significant cultural resources" which includes the Kingston Penitentiary and Rockwood Asylum.  The City of Kingston intends to designate Portsmouth Village, where KP and the Prison for Women are located into a Heritage Conservation District. No apartments will ever in the future obstruct views of Kingston's waterfront, parks, gardens, cemeteries, lakes, rivers, neighborhood shorelines, vegetation and scenic vistas.
     Ontario's Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing approved the "City of Kingston Official Plan (2010)", so the Federal Government, Ontario Realty Corporation and developers cannot appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board for demolition and zoning changes."

   The Rockwood Hospital in Kingston is owned by the Ontario Realty Corporation, a provincial Crown corporation. Aside from Rockwood, ORC properties include the Don Jail in Toronto (saved); Guelph Reformatory(saved); a couple of massive former psychiatric hospitals and government of Ontario office buildings. Bowmanville and the Rideau Regional Centre in Smiths Falls were also Ontario Realty Corporation Crown assets.
I believe that residential towers will constructed on most of Kingston's waterfront, after a provincial Crown corporation--- the Ontario Realty Corporation---sells Rockwood Hospital, made with limestone. The beautiful Collins Bay Pen is known as Disneyland North.
