Half Way Tree is a neighbourhood in the city of Kingston, Jamaica. It is the parish capital of St. Andrew.

Half Way Tree is served by the Kingston 10 post office. It is said to be named after a large cotton tree that stood there prior to the 1655 English conquest. The tree marked the half-way point between Greenwich, St. Andrew a soldier base, to a fort in Spanish Town.
