About Cite · Made in Kingston

Students at UTech, mapping the campus they walk every day.

Cite is a live map of UTech, UWI Mona and Kingston, written by the people standing there. It was founded by Kimani McLeish, with co-founders Kuane Forrest and Jhonathan Nelson. Kimani and Kuane are students at the University of Technology, Jamaica, and Jhonathan studies at Florida International University.

02Why a map

The people who know what’s happening are the ones standing there.

Other maps know where the buildings are. They don’t know the third floor is dead quiet after six, or that the queue’s been out the door since noon. Cite is built from the campus out: the canteen, the library, the gate, the road that floods.

Everything on it is put up by whoever was there, and everything leaves on its own once it can’t be true. That is the whole idea, and it started on the grounds its founders walk.

03Who stands behind it

A small team, checked the slow way.

Every business claim is read by a person before it goes live. Every flyer sent in is looked over before it is on the map. Nobody is approved by a script.
