Being an unashamed skyscraper geek I'll admit this building is fun (even though it's an obvious short steal from Shang). Why not.
One tall tower (casino?) is just another view.
I grew up next door. But Niagara Falls (city) has been putting lipstick on a tourism pig from Clifton Hill to later casinos et al for some time. Logical for tourism. Clifton Hill remains a hilarious (go there but don't tell anyone).
Before all this the Niagara Parks Commission had sketched/built a glorious ribbon of bike/walk/drive drive/park experiences along the river. Unmatched views of falls, the gorge etc. All the way to Niagara-On-the-Lake.
But the city seems not collecting/building on casino revenues and rebuidling the town itself. Why.
Better than the US side. Of course. But wasted chances... still a dumpy town. NF (Canada) city improving.. not imo.
Love the edge of Niagara Falls Ontario. Always have. Hope the city overmasters start to bring the town back.
