Another updated gallery that I put up recently is of the Oakes Garden Theatre. This is a beautiful park at the very bottom of Clifon Hill at River Road. The Niagara Parks web site describes it in this way: Originally constructed in 1936, Oakes Garden Theatre was built in the form of an amphitheatre. By…
I recently updated the image gallery again. There are now 980+ pictures in 115+ categories. Here are a few highlights: I updated the Niagara Falls in the Movies: Superman II post.

Chris was over in Niagara falls, NY last night and took a few beautiful shots of Clifton Hill / Falls Avenue, the American Falls, and the Skylon Tower. Check them out in the Niagara Falls at Night gallery.

I looked around the site a bit, and noticed they have all sorts of information on skyscrapers in major cities. There is a page for Niagara Falls, as…
Yesterday we went to the Mystery Maze on Oneida Lane, just off Clifton Hill. It is owned and operated by the Haunted House, Brick City, Fun House, Guinness people. The attraction isn’t very large, and it doesn’t take very long to get through (it took us 7 minutes). But it was fun and we wanted…
Guinness World Records Museum on Clifton Hill in Niagara Falls is closed today so that new flooring can be put in. I assume they will be either opening again tonight, or tomorrow morning. The sign didn’t say.
