#7 Table Rock

#8 Niagara Falls State Park
For our American friends, Niagara Falls New York Offers some stunning winter views at their State Park! Its the place to be for natural beauty, thrilling adventures and awe-inspiring fun. Majestic snowfall and ice have coated this area and created a must-see spectacle.
In the frosty depths of Niagara Falls’ winter, over 85 years ago, a chilling event unfolded during temperatures below zero. The mighty Honeymoon Bridge, also known as the Falls View Bridge, faced nature’s wrath as enormous ice chunks gathered beneath it on January 23rd, 1938. A robust wind storm propelled ice from Lake Erie, covering the Horseshoe and American Falls. Though we’ve encountered “Polar Vortex” conditions lately, that specific year was exceptionally frigid, leading to ice bridges piling up and creeping towards the bridge’s foundations. As the ice reached unprecedented heights, the bridge succumbed to the immense pressure and tragically collapsed.
Early Days
Constructed in 1898 by the Pencoyd Bridge Company of Philadelphia and designed by Engineer R.S. Buck, the Honeymoon Bridge was a remarkable structure. With an 840-foot span, it featured a two-hinged arch, a latticed rib, and trusses connecting the main span to each shoreline. Positioned close to the river’s edge, the abutments extended to the base of the gorge. However, this proximity to the water level would ultimately lead to the undoing of the bridge.
On June 23rd, 1897, the Upper Steel Arch Bridge was completed and opened for traffic, boasting the title of the world’s longest structure of its kind with an 840-foot span. This magnificent bridge featured a single floor, accommodating double tracks for electric trolleys, as well as space for carriages and pedestrians. Not only was it a functional crossing, but the Upper Steel Arch Bridge also stood as a lovely and graceful structure, offering a breathtaking view of the Falls.
Early Issues
The bridge’s abutments faced an ongoing challenge from ice bridges forming in the Lower Niagara River every winter, given their nearness to the river’s surface. A significant ice bridge posed a threat to displace the bridge from its foundations in early January 1899. Dedicated workers labored for three weeks, clearing ice around the abutments and steel girders, effectively minimizing damage to the structure.
Collapse Event
In the pivotal week of 1938, the Niagara River surged, reaching a height of 9 feet, submerging the Maid of the Mist docks and the surrounding area. Ice tightly wrapped around the abutments of the Honeymoon Bridge, prompting the suspension of all vehicle traffic on the day preceding the collapse. Fortunately, no casualties resulted from the traffic halt, except for the bridge itself.
On January 27th, 1938, at 4:20 pm, the Honeymoon Bridge succumbed to the force and plunged into the Niagara Gorge.
The lesson from the Niagara Falls Bridge Collapse led to the construction of the current Rainbow Bridge, strategically positioned about 500 feet north of the former Honeymoon Bridge location. This new bridge was built to endure strong winds and harsh weather conditions more effectively!
The Rainbow Bridge
Pictured Above: The Current Rainbow Bridge
The old Honeymoon Bridge had issues with pedestrians and vehicles, and its wooden deck made it especially perilous when wet. In 1930, a tragic incident occurred when an American driver lost control, skidded off the bridge, and fell into the gorge.
The intense 24-hour battle between ice and steel reaches its peak just past 4 o’clock in the afternoon, as the Falls View International Bridge dramatically collapses into the ice-packed gorge of the Niagara River. Thousands of onlookers witnessed the majestic steel structure’s fall from both sides of the gorge.

Niagara Falls is not only known for its magnificent waterfalls but also holds a significant place in Black history. This article takes you on a journey through time, exploring the stories of courage, freedom, and resilience of Black Canadians in the Niagara region. From the Underground Railroad to influential figures like Harriet Tubman, we will delve into the rich tapestry of Black history in Niagara Falls.
Black History Month is celebrated in February in both Canada and the United States. Niagara Falls and the surrounding region embrace this month by offering various events and activities that highlight the achievements and contributions of Black individuals.
The Underground Railroad: A Path to Freedom
Between 1840 and 1860, thousands of enslaved Africans sought freedom in Canada through the Underground Railroad. Although not an actual railroad, it was a secret network of routes and safe houses that guided people to freedom. Niagara Falls played a vital role in this network, serving as a settling point for many who escaped slavery in the United States.
The Underground Railroad was a lifeline for enslaved people seeking freedom. Niagara Falls became a beacon of hope and a gateway to liberation.
Harriet Tubman: The Heroine of the Underground Railroad
Lindsley, Harvey B., 1842-1921, photographer
One of the most influential figures in Black history is Harriet Tubman. Born into slavery in Maryland, Tubman escaped to Philadelphia in 1849, leaving behind her husband. Determined to liberate others, she became a conductor on the Underground Railroad, leading numerous enslaved people to freedom.
Harriet Tubman’s bravery and determination made her a guiding light for those seeking freedom. She risked her life to rescue her sister and many others, bringing them to safety in Niagara Falls.
Tubman’s actions were even more remarkable considering the risks she faced. The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 allowed slave hunters to capture and return escaped slaves, and a $40,000 reward was offered for her capture – dead or alive. Despite these dangers, Tubman made 11 trips into the United States, liberating countless individuals and solidifying her place in history.
Niagara Falls: A Sanctuary for Freedom Seekers
Niagara Falls became a sanctuary for freedom seekers, offering safety and support to those fleeing slavery. St. Catharines, a nearby town, played a pivotal role in assisting and resettling escaped slaves. The Reverend Hiram Wilson, an abolitionist and leader of the local refugee community, provided aid and guidance to those seeking freedom.
St. Catharines quickly became a hub for freedom seekers, with a growing community of Black families finding safety and support in the area.
Nathaniel Dett Memorial Chapel
The Nathaniel Dett Memorial Chapel, located in Niagara Falls, Ontario holds significant historical value. Built in 1836, it was moved to Peer Street in 1856. This relocation was made possible by Burr Plato, a fugitive from the United States who became the first elected Black man in local government. The chapel stands as a testament to the resilience and strength of the Black community in Niagara Falls.
Monuments Honoring Black Canadian Heritage
Niagara Falls is home to numerous monuments and displays that honor Black Canadian heritage. These landmarks allow visitors to learn about the struggles, triumphs, and contributions of the Black community in Canada. From Fort Erie to Niagara-on-the-Lake, the Niagara River Parkway serves as a guide, showcasing the stories of independence and bravery.
Mackenzie Printery: Preserving History through the Press
The Mackenzie Printery holds a significant place in Black Canadian history. It houses the Louis Roy press, Canada’s oldest wooden printing press and one of only seven remaining in the world. This press played a crucial role in printing the 1793 Act Against Slavery, a landmark legislation that limited the introduction of enslaved people into Upper Canada.
Mackenzie Printery
The Louis Roy press stands as a symbol of the fight against slavery and the progress made in abolishing this oppressive institution.
Harriet Tubman Tribute: Crossing the Border to Freedom
Niagara Falls pays tribute to Harriet Tubman’s courageous journey through a commemorative plaque. Located near the Whirlpool Bridge Plaza by the White Water Walk, the plaque marks the spot where Tubman crossed into Canada in 1856. It serves as a reminder of her bravery and the countless lives she helped liberate.
White Water Walk
Harriet Tubman’s crossing into Canada represents a pivotal moment in Black history, symbolizing the pursuit of freedom and the triumph over adversity.
Niagara’s Freedom Trail: Tracing the Journey to Freedom
Niagara’s Freedom Trail is a captivating route that honors the thousands of African Americans who found freedom in Canada. The trail follows the path of the Underground Railroad, guiding visitors through significant locations such as Fort Erie, where freedom seekers crossed into Canada.
Niagara’s Freedom Trail offers a unique opportunity to walk in the footsteps of those who sought freedom and to gain a deeper appreciation for their struggles and triumphs.
The trail showcases plaques, markers, and displays that provide historical context and personal stories from the era of the Underground Railroad. It serves as a powerful reminder of the courage and determination of those who risked everything for freedom.
Voices of Freedom Memorial: Honoring Black History in Niagara-on-the-Lake
The Voices of Freedom memorial, located in nearby Niagara-on-the-Lake, is an experiential art installation designed to engage, educate, and challenge visitors about Black history. This powerful monument serves as a reminder of the resilience and spirit of the Black community in Niagara.
