Deadline to transfer is Oct 7, 2026. My husband and I purchased not realizing we had another event scheduled that weekend! Please DM if interested. TY!

Hi! I was wondering if there any trails or nicer calm areas to have my dog swim or play in the water a bit more then the mini pool we have at home.

I just moved to the area and im not sure about places near us!

Any females wanna actually meet up? Don't have to hookup but I want new female friends 😌

Does anyone have a contact for someone who would have old pictures/street views of specific areas/streets in NF? Thank you!

Greetings all!

My (33M) wife (28F) and I will be traveling to Niagara falls for the 4th of July weekend (via motorcycle from Cleveland, OH). We will be staying stateside, but do have our passports and plan on going over into Canada for a day.

The only thing we have planned is to do the jet boat ride on the 4th. Looking for some local recommendations for live music, brunch, hidden gems? We are not big drinkers, but we do enjoy some good wine. Really hoping to find a couple of gems and somewhere to have some fun Saturday night.

Thanks!

My family wants to stay a week at Niagara Falls but not all of us will have passports. Is there really enough to do just on the US side? We're going in late September. The family going without passports includes two preteens.

We've gone to places like OBX, Orlando, and Gatlinburg. Many of the activities we end up doing involve eating out, going to amusement parks, shopping, or drinking. As a whole, we're not typically outdoorsy, go-on-a-hike vacationers.

Thanks!

I decided that I will cross Rainbow Bridge on foot, rather than take the bus from Toronto to Buffalo. I wanted to avoid delays at the border. So here are some of my questions (which are really more like confirmations):

1.) Where is the nearest bus stop at Niagara? I'm looking a Google Maps and it says the bus stop is at 3rd Street & Wendell Way. I'm also seeing another one at Rainbow Blvd. & 1st Street.

2.) Is it better to take the 77 over the 40 bus? I'm reading that the 77 is Express and drops me off at a roundabout near the City Hall, not Ellicott Street.

3.) Getting back to Niagara, is the 77 bus only available at Ellicott Street since it's Express? Or is it better to take the 40 since it stops at various locations?

Hi, I’ve observed that Niagara Falls, NY unfortunately falls well below standard in comparison to its counterpart across the river. A few documentaries indicate that the city population has fallen fast, crime is rampant, and this was evident to me anytime I visit.

I’ll be in the Niagara region for a day, I was wondering what’s the best way in general tourists can help Niagara Falls, NY? Where to shop, eat, etc.

Hi, I'm driving through the area later today and hoped to stop at what was the former Our Lady of Victory Infant Home and Maternity Home in Lackawanna. My late father was born in December 1962 at a "nunnery" in Lackawanna, NY. He was adopted a few months later and never found out specifically what the institution was called. Doing some research it looks like this was a very notable place for unwed mothers to have their babies at the time and I'd like to stop and check it out. Can anyone share what that building(s) is like today? Thank you kindly.

Swinging into town on Thursday and looking fpr something different for breakfast.

I won't have a car because I'll be taking Amtrak to Niagara Falls, arriving arounf 6 PM and staying at a hotel near the Falls. What are the best ways to get from the Amtrak station to the Falls area?

Is there reliable public transportation that goes close to the Falls and nearby hotels? If so, how convenient is it to use? Also, are Uber or Lyft readily available in the area, and what are typical wait times and costs like?
