History & Archaeology at the Niagara Falls Exchange

DTAH has been working with the City of Niagara Falls on the Niagara Falls Exchange, a new creative and cultural hub that includes a large market hall, café, artist studios, woodworking shop and public washrooms, surrounded by two multi-functional civic plazas that interconnect the flanking streets.

Located along an original portage route in the Main and Ferry district of the city, the property once housed a vibrant hotel and local theatre. Evidence of both have been uncovered during the construction of the Exchange which began late last year. Doug Todd of ASI Heritage will lead a virtual discussion on what treasures have been found during the site’s excavation, and what these artefacts tell us about the history of Niagara Falls. Please join us on May 6th, 2021 at 7PM EDT – details below.
