Overview

Located just 4 km from Canberra’s centre, Kingston is the city’s oldest and one of its most densely populated suburbs. Its heritage precincts – the 1915 Kingston Powerhouse and the 1925 Causeway Hall – sit beside the Kingston Shopping Centre with Green Square park, a lively bar scene and the weekly Old Bus Depot Markets on the lakefront. Residents enjoy easy access to the lake foreshore, cafés and the Canberra Railway Station.

Wentworth Avenue runs northwest‑southeast through Kingston, with Telopea Park East forming the northern edge and access to the shopping precinct via Eyre or Giles Streets. Recent redevelopment has added townhouses and four‑storey apartments along the Kingston Foreshores. The 2021 census recorded 6,579 residents, with 90.5 % living in flats or units and 45 % employed as professionals, many in central‑government roles.
