You Take My Breath Away (1) - 11 May 2019

21 May 2019 1 71
For an overnight stay at Niagara Falls, we had booked a Falls View room and were not disappointed. The corridor leading to the rooms offered only a dull view over Niagara Falls, Ontario but the view from the high-floor room was truly breathtaking. In one of two pictures signing off my Niagara Falls series, this is the view of Horseshoe Falls from our room. TZ30_P1050699E

A new picture of the statue by Leslie Drysdale of inventor Nikola Tesla at Niagara Falls, Ontario, commemorates his inventions at a site deeply associated with hydro-electric power. Tesla developed the world's first system. I first photographed this on 5 September 2012. There is another monument on Goat Island on the US side of the Niagara River. 200_3_P1100950

Former Toronto Power Generating Station - 11 May 2…

19 May 2019 145
It would be possible to visit Niagara Falls and view only the waterfalls themselves but, the fact is, there is a great deal to see in the area. This magnificent piece of Beaux-Arts industrial architecture caught my eye. It is the former Toronto Power Generating Station which ceased operating in February 1974. 200_3_P1100953R
