From the Niagara Falls Review: Although the announcement of a 7,000-seat entertainment centre at the Fallsview Casino is seven years late, it’s definitely a case of better late than never. It’s never really been a question of should the casino build a larger entertainment complex, but why the heck didn’t they do it in the…
From the Niagara Falls Review: Details on a proposed new entertainment facility will be revealed Wednesday during an announcement at the Scotiabank Convention Centre. Clare Copeland, CEO of Falls Management Company, will unveil results of a strategic study regarding the major new venue starting at 1 p.m. The announcement comes on the heels of Niagara…
Things are coming along nicely for the new Dinosaur Adventure Golf on Clifton Hill behind the Niagara SkyWheel. Yesterday they put up the signs. I think the eyeball looks cool!

Back in July http://twitpic.com/223lpeI posted a picture of a notice of a sign outside the Fallsview Inn on Stanley Avenue. There was a proposal for a 9-storey hotel. Well, reading this sign would have made me think that there was a new 9-storey hotel being build. Actually, it appears to just be an addition.
From Buffalo Business First: Just a few days before the grand opening of the Scotiabank Convention Centre, Kerry Painter is able to finally get rid of her hard hat and steel-toed shoes as she walks around the building. The 288,000-square-foot Niagara Falls, Ont. convention center is that close to opening. Crews inside and outside the…
From the Niagara Falls Review: “I am so sick of wearing hard hats,” Kerry Painter gripes with a weary smile. She has a point. She looks like a construction worker in virtually every picture taken of her these past three years. It was fun at first — the groundbreaking, the first cement truck, the first…
