I actually emailed Greg himself that night to tell him how nice it is to have that kind of entertainment in Niagara. The hotel is starting to really take shape.

I'm not sure what it was before that, as it was probably a few things since it was the Dairy.

I used to park in the parking lot behind the theater where the apartments were (free parking, noone knew of)... and I never really saw any crowds or cars or even any life while that Cyberport was open. After a couple of years, the for-sale sign went up "zoned for tourism"... and we all knew what happened next. As for the building to the left of it, wasn't it a bar/restaurant a few years back? That whole block only a few years ago was just completely dead and clashed with the rest of Clifton Hill. I hope that the owner really makes it a turn-around with the success of the Greg Ferwin Theater. Did anyone ever visit the Cyberport, when it was?

I love the look of this building so I hope they maintain that part of it. It looks like the construction's just been to clean it up and renovate the interior so far.
