? The KDD is 1.683 ha in size. It is located in a newly revitalized area of mixed uses along the Kingston waterfront. The site is a former dry dock and mooring area for ships. The site is divided into three areas:
1) One public (un-fenced) area that includes the dry dock, a public parking area and four connected buildings which house the Marine Museum of the Great Lakes (Museum);
2) The East Wharf: a non-public (fenced) area; and
3) The West Wharf: a non-public (fenced) area.
? The KDD is designated as a National Historic Site of Canada.
? The Museum occupies the Property pursuant to a licence agreement with PWGSC. Please note that the ship berthed on site is the property of the Museum. As it does not belong to the Government of Canada; it is therefore not included in the sale of the Property.
