Encounter villains, heroes in Marvel Adventure City
By Joseph Szadkowski
June 25, 2005NIAGARA FALLS, Ontario — The last thing I expected to see a block away from one of the world’s most famous natural wonders was a 23-story building with a gigantic, two-dimensional Hulk bursting from its corner.
Yet there it stood, above the main entrance to Marvel Adventure City, an approximately 30,000-square-foot home to the Marvel Comics universe that mixes a traditional game arcade with multisensory attractions.
As part of the Canadian Niagara Group’s Falls Avenue Complex, the ode to Stan Lee’s favorite comic book company has existed for the past couple of years next to such attractions as MGM Studios’ Great Movie Journey, the World Wrestling Entertainment Pile Driver and the Pink Panther Falls Balloon ride, along with an avalanche of hotels, shops and restaurants.
