There is new advertising covering where Graham had posted back in 2005 about this same billboard. It was dedicated to the Movieland Wax museum on Stanley Avenue, but was starting to become very sun faded. They have now changed it to represent the Niagara Skywheel on Clifton Hill and it really stands out.
I know in the grand scheme of things, this is extremely unimportant, but I noticed it so I figured I’d pass it along… Before Build-A-Bear Workshop arrived, the only place on Clifton Hill where you could make your own stuffed animal was at Fun Factory. This is on the HOCO side of the street, and…
Someone with a Live Journal blog posted about a recent trip to Niagara Falls: Woke up Monday morning early and got ready for the day. Left Derek sleep a little longer while I got ready and then we left about 1030am to start our walk out to Clifton Hill. That’s the tourist area that we…
On Saturday night the family piled into the mini-van and went to see how Earth Hour went in Niagara Falls. I guess you could say we did our part for Earth Hour since we didn’t have our house lights on at all 🙂 Here are my observations: Basically right at 8 pm most of the…
Late last week (Thursday or Friday I think), the Fun Pass offered for many of the Clifton Hill attractions was expanded. Prior to this, for $25, the Fun Pass used to include the following: Niagara SkyWheel Movieland Wax Museum Galaxy Golf or Dinosaur Park Miniature Golf Ghost Blasters Cosmic Coaster (FX ride) 10 or 15…
This is just a preview of a few posts that I will have over the next few weeks. I have taken screencaps (screenshots or screen captures of videos) of Wonderfalls (the TV show that was based in Niagara Falls), Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End (they used the Horseshoe Falls as a guide for…
I’m not sure when this started, but for several years now there has been an annual day for some of the local attractions let locals in for $1 (+ tax I think) and the money is collected for Cystic Fibrosis. This year, the day is Sunday, January 13 from 10 am to 5 pm. There…
This is an old sign for Clifton Hill that is in the aquarium building at Marineland. You can see a lot of the old signs and locations (Fantasy Fudge Factory is gone, Circus World is gone, Dinosaur Park has moved, Movieland has moved, Arby’s is gone). A lot has changed over the last few years!
I recently found a Clifton Hill Fun Pass on the ground. This is the combo/extra value pass that is available on the south side of Clifton Hill (the HOCO properties). For $25 you get access to 1 mini-putt (Dinosaur Park or Galaxy Golf), the Movieland wax musuem, the Niagara SkyWheel, the 2 attractions in the…
As FALLSVIEW posted about in the forum, the Circus World store on Victoria Avenue near the top of Clifton Hill is closed. They didn’t just close up and leave over night. They had a sign on their window for the last month or more where it said they were closing and everything must go. Then…
