I visited a newly bolted crag in Kingston today.  I checked out this area for potential in 1998ish, right when I first started climbing and lived in the area.  At that time I found a single red rap sling indicating someone else had the same idea, although I am not sure who.  At the time I dismissed the area cause it was dirty and a lot of work and needed bolts, which at the time was not in my vocabulary.
The area has since been developed as a sport crag with a ton of work!  There are quite a few lines up to almost 100ft.  I was quite impressed with the cliff but especially the effort to create it.
It is a super convenient area easy approach and great for new climbers.  I think the climbing looks ugly but climbs quite well and there is potential with some work for a few harder climbs.  We will see what time brings.
