During the week they started to take down parts of the Golden Griddle / Quality Inn Clifton Hill front desk. Then near the end of the week they demolished the Golden Griddle entirely.
You’ve never been able to see Boston Pizza / Sports Zone like this before

You can easily see over or through the fence they setup

You can see a bit of a broken Golden Griddle sign (it’s red)

You can’t read it in this picture, but the door still standing on the far side says Fire Exit Only. I think if you were still in the building, you’d have bigger problems than wondering where the fire exit was

Is it under construction or deconstruction?
The Friday, January 27, 2006 edition of the St. Catharines Standard had an article about the Great Wolf Lodge job fair called It’s a long wiat for job-hunters. The article isn’t online, but here are some of the details:
- it was a 3 day job fair
- about 1,500 people went on the first day alone
- people waited for anywhere from 2 to 5 hours to get an interview
- there were about 500 jobs to fill
- 200 people had been offered jobs on the first day

From the Buffalo News:
Everyone thought Greg Frewin’s interest in magic was a whim when as a boy of 12 he wanted to become a magician. His inspiration, he explained, was David Copperfield.
“Everyone thought I was nuts,” Frewin said. “They kept thinking it would pass. I grew up watching David Copperfield on television. He made me keep pursuing my goal.”
For this spring, Frewin has created an illusion that will require some help from Niagara Parks and a flotilla of jet boats. Frewin’s planned escape from a frothy death chamber known as the Whirlpool at Niagara Falls will be taped for broadcast in summer across Canada, Frewin said.
“I’ll be lowered over the whirlpool, and if I don’t escape in a certain amount of time, I’ll be dropped in the whirlpool and I’ll have to get out,” he explained. “It’s going to be pretty cool.”
I’ve written quite a bit about Greg Frewin. You can find my other postings by searching the Niagara Falls Blog.
I submitted a couple of videos to the Google Video website. After what seemed to be an eternity, they were finally approved. Here’s the first one for your viewing pleasure:
This is on a Tulsa, OK site, but it is a nice video of the fireworks over Niagara Falls. It was done in December of last year. Check it out!
