everyone who is blaming the urban decay in Niagara Falls New york on specific ethnic groups or anyone person is so out of line.........NF New York is nothing but a perfect example of what suburban sprawl has done to many North American cities over the past decades. This is just a more prominent example of how bad it can be.....the more and more people who flee city centres for suburbia are essentially creating urban decay, this also hurts the economy which is why there is so many abandoned buldn

@38snipshow exactly

[leftover421]

it isnt "The Italians" or the "Black people" you stupid bunch of losers. its YOU that makes this country bad. You all wana run your mouth about what the problem is but NONE of you are doing anything to fix it. Keep the blame game up, it must be working because we are so much better off now. you people are pathetic. Try this: get off your fat American ass for once, stop blaming everyone else, go out there and get your hands dirty, mow a yard downtown, organize a trash pick up, anything.

First and foremost everyone is Blaming Wat race its not about that has anyone considered the government whose taking things away for the youth to do? One after another and BTW this is ONE part of town of Niagara falls I've lived here all my life and yes it could be better but due to the government it's hard to do so. So stop blaming the citizens and blame the ppl who are running this city allowing this to happen. BuildingS are being repaired/built and more stores restaurants clubs etc are bein

Yeah thats why I moved. Tired of watching the area fall apart and the damn Republicans bury it further. Hooker/Oxy Chemical left, Nabisco, Trico, Bethlehem, GM powertrain etc the list goes on, all headed for cheaper labor costs, yet Niagara and Erie county pay the highest taxes and for utilities and gasoline... Sad :( I miss the Summit Park Mall

There used to be two fun nighclubs the,, The Library, and the Late Show????

Great places,, but even then once we got out to our car,, we didnt' hang around the place.. Also a chicken wing place called 'Honey's Pizza'.. best wings around. I think their clientel was 80% Canadians who came over. I used to cross the border and run into peopel I knew from high school. Fun times back then.
