There is a large 5,000 seat performance space under construction right now that will up the entertainment facilities significantly.
Another large casino on the Canadian side beside Fallsview would likely be a good step, and better transportation links.
The problem with Niagara Falls is that while it’s a border location, about 80% of the attractions are on the Canadian side. Crossing the border might not seem like a big deal for a lot of people on this board, but the % of Americans without passports is pretty substantial. Just being on the wrong side of the river is going to be a big limiter.
Currently it acts as the gambling resort town a short distance away from Toronto, sort of how Atlantic City serves that for NYC and Philly. It’s going to have to really step it up to start attracting a wider audience.
