All things Niagara Falls tourism…
This article (called “Trip Tracker”) from the Anchorage Daily News lists a few web sites that you might want to check out if you are going to Niagara Falls:
Niagara Falls offer awe-inspiring views of natural beauty. Set in lights at night, it’s the perfect romantic getaway. Or take the whole family for a watery adventure.
Not that this is anything important, but as I was walking along Ellen Ave the other day (across from the Days Inn & Suites on Ellen Ave near Centre St) I noticed that there is a back door to the Spicy Olive.
From the Niagara Falls Review:
The $40,000 cost of hiring police to close Clifton Hill every day “destroyed” plans to bring tightrope walker Jay Cochrane back to Niagara Falls this summer, says Coun. Wayne Thomson, a go-between for Cochrane and tourism operators.
Tourism operators had been making arrangements to bring Cochrane, “The Prince of the Air” back to Niagara Falls this summer, this time to perform on Clifton Hill.
“It was going exceptionally well. In the final analysis, it came down to the police costs which were in the area of $40,000 for the summer,” Thomson said in an interview Tuesday.
Niagara Falls Tourism’s website says Cochrane “is expected to return to Niagara Falls” this summer. His plans were to walk a wire between the Sheraton-on-the-Falls hotel, at the corner of Falls Avenue and Clifton Hill, to a platform erected on the south side of Clifton Hill on land owned by HOCO.
