Falls to go dark for Earth Hour this Saturday

Those who head to the Falls expecting to see beautiful colors on Saturday night could wind up disappointed.

The Niagara Parks Commission (NPC) in partnership with the Niagara Falls Illumination Board is pleased to once again announce its participation in the World Wildlife Fund

    I must be a “crank” too, because I hate the way the park looks…ugly trash receptacles all over the place, etc. It’s NOT an Olmstead park today. They paved paradise and put up a parking lot…la la la

    There were a lot of people upset when State Parks first illuminated the Falls years ago. It’s a grievous violation of the Olmsted plan for the park. But today the park is commercialized beyond all recognition anyway, pavement and food stands and coin-operated binoculars line the falls and nobody seems to give a shit about it except cranks like me.
