What is it? |
A plaque overlooking Niagara Falls! |
What makes it historical? |
This is the site of the historic landmark, Table Rock, a shelf of bare rock 61 metres (200 feet) long, 18.3 metres (60 feet) wide. Once part of the crest of the Horseshoe Falls, it was left isolated when the Falls receded. Rock falls in 1818, 1828, 1829, 1850, and 1934 reduced its size. The remaining overhang was blasted off for safety reasons in 1935. |
How can I Help the Helpers? |
HERE’S HOW:
- Buy something in the gift shop and contribute toward site maintenance, sign design, and other visitor services!
- You can work for the Niagara Parks Commission!
- Be a responsible visitor! Please respect the signs and pathways, and treat all structures and artifacts with respect. They’ve endured a lot to survive into the present. They’ll need our help to make it into the future!
