Niagara Falls Question: What is the biggest eyesore next to the Falls?

I’ve heard quite a bit of news stories lately about Starbucks, and how in China they are setting up shop in areas that many people don’t like. They even have a location inside the Forbidden City. It made me think about Niagara Falls and leads me to this week’s question:

What is the biggest eyesore next to the Falls?

There are lots of fun things to do in Niagara Falls. In fact, I think we often take for granted that there is this incredible natural wonder right beside all of the fun attractions. When you go and view the Falls, what do you like seeing the least? Does that ugly colour-changing casino in NY bother you? Did the Superman promo bother you? I personally can’t stand looking at the Horseshoe Falls and seeing the Marineland Sky Screamer in the background.

Hilton expansion progress

The work seems to be moving along quickly at the corner of Fallsview Blvd and Murray Hill where the Hilton is expanding. They’ve dug down a couple of stories, and now are preparing the foundation. That’s a lot of rebar!

Replacement store where Circus World was located

The store where Circus World used to be located on Victoria Avenue has been divided in half and now one half has a small store in it. It doesn’t seem like anything too special.
