Nice place to view the power plant & surrounding area. Great view with different things to see. It's clean and practically empty on a Saturday in the summer.
Would have liked to see some historical info or just info in general about what I'm looking at. There was also no garbage bins.

Wow is all I can say. One of our favorite activity we did on our Niagara falls vacation. We biked 2 adults and 2 kids all the way from the butterfly conservatory past this power station all the way to the flower clock no problem. It was an amazing easy very flat ride. Kids 7 and 10 had no problem. It was beautiful. They have a long stretch of wildflowers along our route that are for the monarch butterflies ?. Not busy at all and it was mid July during the week. We did not go in any building just did the bike ride past it and stopped to take it all in.

It was just the end of a wonderful tour. Good place for a picture or two, nothing more.

Another beauty Niagara has to offer. Fall is one of the better times to come here.

I recently had the opportunity to explore the power generation facilities at Niagara Falls, and it was an enlightening and impressive experience! The Niagara Falls power generation system is a marvel of engineering and a testament to the incredible potential of renewable energy.

One of the highlights of my visit was the guided tour of the Niagara Parks Power Station. The tour provided a fascinating look into the history and mechanics of hydroelectric power generation. The guides were knowledgeable and passionate, explaining how the powerful flow of the Niagara River is harnessed to produce electricity for millions of people.

The scale of the operation is truly awe-inspiring. The power station itself is an architectural gem, with its impressive machinery and historical significance. Seeing the massive turbines and generators up close was a unique experience, allowing me to appreciate the complexity and ingenuity involved in converting the energy of the falls into electrical power.

The informative exhibits and interactive displays were engaging and educational, making the visit suitable for all ages. I learned a great deal about the science of hydroelectric power, the environmental considerations, and the pivotal role Niagara Falls has played in the development of sustainable energy solutions.

One of the most captivating parts of the visit was understanding the balance between preserving the natural beauty of Niagara Falls and harnessing its energy. The efforts to maintain this balance are commendable, ensuring that the falls continue to be a source of both natural wonder and sustainable power.

Parking was convenient, and the visitor center staff were extremely helpful, providing detailed information and answering all our questions. The facilities were well-maintained, adding to the overall positive experience.

In conclusion, the Niagara Falls power generation tour is a must-visit for anyone interested in engineering, renewable energy, or simply wanting to gain a deeper understanding of one of the world's most famous natural landmarks. It’s a perfect blend of education, history, and awe-inspiring natural beauty. Highly recommend!

No complaints, nice overlook with easy parking and a cool view. Unobstructed look at the entire US power dam. (My stop here was for birding: the Niagara River is a gulling hotspot in the winter, accumulating incredible amounts of several species of gulls.
