  • Doing Niagara Falls If You're Stuck on the American Side
    Meiqianbao/ Shutterstock Doing Niagara Falls If You're Stuck on the American Side By Jason Cochran The legendary Niagara Falls, one of the greatest natural attractions in North America, straddles the border between Ontario, Canada, and New York State. In an ideal tourism situation, you'd be able to drive or stroll across the Rainbow International Bridge to enjoy the view from both banks of the Niagara River. But sometimes you just can't get over the border. Maybe you don't have enough time. Maybe your legal status won't allow it. Or maybe you happen to be living through a once-in-a-lifetime global pandemic that has sealed national borders. It's all good! If you're restricted to the U.S. side, you won't find yourself over a barrel. There's plenty to do. In fact, some of the best activities in the Niagara Falls area are on the American side. Pictured above: Terrapin Point, at right, juts into the eastern side of the Falls from Niagara Falls State Park in New York State. Niagara Falls State Park Niagara Falls State Park If we're being honest, the Canadian side has richer options for quality lodging and tourist amenities, although the stuff on that riverbank tends toward cheesy honky-tonk. New York's territory beside the Falls, on the other hand, has been preserved from development since the 1880s. In fact, the area is now the oldest state park in the United States. The more-than-400-acre Niagara Falls State Park, which is separated from the core of town by a breakaway river, is speckled with whitewater-spanning bridges, river islands, curving walkways, and native animals.

  • Downtown Neighborhood City of Niagara Falls: Phase I
    Intensive Level Survey Historic Resources – Downtown Neighborhood City of Niagara Falls: Phase I 3.0 Historical Overview This section provides a narrative history of the City of Niagara Falls with specific emphasis on the Downtown neighborhood. The overview addresses significant trends and themes associated with the city’s historic context. The Downtown neighborhood’s period of significance is identified and examined in this chapter. Martin Wachadlo, architectural historian, conducted the background historic research. 3.1 Niagara County: Physiology and Geology Figure 3-1. Niagara Falls, Niagara Falls, New York Niagara County borders the southern shore of Lake Ontario in the extreme northwestern corner of New York State, and occupies part of the Huron and Ontario Plains. The Ontario Plain comprises part of Lake Ontario to the foot of the Niagara Escarpment1, and the Huron plain extends from the crest of the escarpment southward beyond the county line. The Niagara Escarpment begins in Watertown, New York, USA and extends westerly along the Manitoulin Island in the Province of Ontario, Canada. The escarpment continues through Wisconsin and Illinois. With geological material measuring 64-ft thick, the stratigraphy at Niagara Falls provides a glimpse into the overall rock types comprising the Niagara Escarpment (Figure 3-1). The top layer is Lockport Dolomite, a hard rock referred to as the "Lower Silurian Group." Below the top layer is Rochester Shale, which is much softer and wears away easily with the effects of erosion. Under the shale are harder strata of limestone and dolostone known as the "Clinton Group." Below the harder strata is Grimsby sandstone.

  • Where Is Niagara Falls? Niagara Falls Is Located on the Niagara River on the International Border Between Ontario Province, Canada and New York State
    Niagara Falls Travel Information Niagara Falls Niagara Falls is a group of massive waterfalls located on the Niagara River on the border between the United States and Canada. North America's most powerful waterfalls - the Niagara is actually a collection of three falls: The Horseshoe Falls, The American Falls and the Bridal Veil Falls. While the American Falls is sandwiched between the Prospect Point and the Luna Island, the Bridal Veil Falls is located between the Luna Island and the Goat Island. The Canadian/Horse Shoe Falls gushes between the Goat Island and the Table Rock. The Niagara itself is a river which is about 12,000 years old. There were ice-sheets of 2-3 kilometers thick in the southern part of Ontario 18,000 years ago. Along the ages and after certain topographical changes the ice-sheets melted and a lot of water accumulated in the Great Lakes Basin. Water from Lake Erie, the Niagara River and Lake Ontario all contribute to the falls. The Niagara Falls is the second largest falls in the world. Each day per minute the Niagara gushes water exceeding 6 million cubic feet. On an average the amount is 4 million cubic feet. Niagara is one of the chief sources of hydroelectric energy for the whole of New York and Ontario. Thus the falls help in the development of commerce and industry and the state's revenue collection is also strengthened by the flourishing tourism industry. Many people tried various stunts at the falls. Some survived while others died in accidents during their performances.
