"Kingston Penitentiary is expected to play a starring role in future movies and television series. It is already a popular tourist attraction, but officials believe there’s also room to use the 19th century prison as a movie backdrop. Now, a trio of partners wants the Limestone City to shine even more brightly and draw in more production." - Global Kingston
