I tweeted on Saturday that I was up on the Niagara SkyWheel. While on the ride, I took a couple of pictures on the work going on behind it. The “teepee” (that’s what a friend of mine called it) hasn’t changed much, but there is lots of other work going on at the site. The word is that it is a new mini-putt course with a large volcano (see here, here, here, and here).
All things Niagara Falls tourism…
Well since it is on the Niagara Falls website, it’s safe to report that the property behind the Skywheel is going to be an adventure mini putt?

Not quite sure how this is better then an amusement park but it’s not my property.
Good find Lonny. Now I have a name I can refer to.
The city’s recently released Business Development Report says that the 28 story HOCO/Comfort Suites will break ground in 2010. If I recall the plans that were released, this hotel was supposed to be at the south end of the property, near Robinson St. It also has the Marriott Residence (Canadian Niagara) starting this year.

I just looked at the report now. Boy, the city sure can make everything sound wonderful, can’t it?!
