# Kingston (US KGT)

**UN/LOCODE:** US KGT  
**Country:** United States  
**Water Body:** North Atlantic Ocean  
**Harbor Size:** Small  
**Harbor Type:** River (Natural)  
**GPS:** 41.9333, -73.9667

Listed under UN/LOCODE US KGT, Kingston stands on the Rondout Creek where it meets the Hudson River, once among the busiest points on the river shipping Rosendale cement, bluestone and brick downriver to New York City. Today its commercial freight role is limited: a shallow channel of about 3.4 m restricts traffic mostly to recreational craft, the Hudson River Maritime Museum and occasional barges. Forwarders handling containers or international cargo should route via the Port of Albany upriver or the Port of New York and New Jersey.
