Grand Opening and beyond...
Through the years, Niagara had been seen as a summer playground with a limited window of fun. ‘The Hundred Days of Magic’ was what the locals use to refer to the Niagara Falls tourist season; from when the Maid of the Mist launched (in May) to Labour Day, Niagara Falls became a Mecca for day-trippers, adventurers, families and romantics. My own parents were caught up with the charm and romance of the old Niagara Falls, and chose to marry here. Years later they returned, with me in tow; 7yrs old and ready to enjoy the Falls and the many sights and sounds of the old Clifton Hill (See Left: Picture of my parents on their wedding day; and me enjoying the attention of a Frankenstein)
When I was invited to move to Niagara Falls, to help build this magnificent building, I saw it as fate that my path crossed with Niagara’s once again. However, with an average of 14-million tourists and visitors coming to the Niagara annually, there are bound to be a few stories like those my family shares. Niagara touches everyone.
