Robert Gage produced at least 72 architectural projects from 1870 to 1888 while living in Kingston, Ontario. His best known commission was the Royal Military College in Kingston. He was an architect of all manner of buildings including private dwellings, public buildings, churches and the Hospital for the Insane in Kingston.
