From the Niagara Gazette:
With the Flight of Angels permanently grounded, city officials and the Cordish Co. have turned their attention toward bringing a new development in to fill the void left downtown.
The vacant property, located at 310 Rainbow Blvd. and owned by Baltimore-based Cordish, is in a prime location about a block away from the Niagara Falls State Park. It also serves as the entrance into the West Pedestrian Mall, which is targeted for an $8 million upgrade next year.
“Obviously, the city is hoping for a higher density use for that property,” Niagara Falls Mayor Paul Dyster said. “We’re looking for a long-term investment of something with lasting value that would do that location justice.”

I got an idea…
…now this has been done before, but it’ll work WONDERS…
…it’s a million dollar idea…
Guess what it is?
Well, remember the failed AquaFalls? It was right across the street. What happened with that? They filled it in & made it a crappy parking lot. Well, let’s turn this useless open grassy space into another surface parking lot. Charge $10.00 a car, and get millions!! Yes…
**sigh**
lol
They should spend the money they make on the parking lot on cleaning up the trash on the strip of land near the former Smokin’ Joes fun center.
The park itself is nicely landscaped and fairly free of trash as I have never smelled trash or seen an excessive amount of it inside the park. The surrounding area is another story however.
The parking lot idea is sadly not far fetched….
The only thing that salvages a falls vacation for tourists is once they figure out there is nothing to do in the USA they head over to the Canadian side and have a good time.
