The perennial problem of making tourism in Niagara Falls a viable year-round business depends on more attractions, especially indoor offerings, according to a new report released Monday.
Mayor Robert M. Restaino disclosed that he already has begun talks with the two largest property owners downtown – the Seneca Nation of Indians and Niagara Falls Redevelopment – about one of the report’s suggestions: finding a site to build a multi-use sports and entertainment venue.
While the report by the Niagara Global Tourism Institute termed such a venue a long-term goal – just as a Niagara County study did several years ago – Restaino told reporters, “I think the time is now.”
