For some reason the title makes me think of the Hells Angels except its those yuppie guys with $10k carbon fiber bikes wearing tights doing cocaine in a sketchy farm house. Great story though!

The land still sits completely vacant and overgrown as of January of 2022. Nothing was ever done with it.

I'm thinking that the land on which those homes were was rented... Like most of the "trailer" park homes in Ontario. Although there was no mention of that in the Niagara falls review article I read regarding the subject in 2009

The police station is on here already at location #3693.
Great collection HW! These 'assortment posts' are tough to organize in the location database, however, because they cover such a great geographical range. But here's what I would suggest. Surprisingly, the old Niagara Falls post office / police station is not yet in the database. Your posted coordinates are almost on top of it. I think you should delete your 2nd gallery (the "niagara falls apart" gallery) and edit the description of your first gallery. Copy the entire description from that gallery and paste it / rewrite the description of your main post to be that instead. And change the title of the main post. Make this entire entry just for that building, as we need a dedicated location entry for that iconic old building. Almost all of the locations in your 2nd gallery exist in the database, so you could separate them into their own location posts if you wanted to and those mini-galleries would get merged into existing locations. Or you could repost that 2nd gallery as a collection of places like this post originally was and we'll set the coordinates somewhere more vague to the old downtown core.
True enough I wasn't exactly sure what to classify it as but thanks man I appreciate it

Changed category to "Commercial" as it looks like storefronts with signs. "Ghost Town" generally refers to a Historic Town that may or may not exist anymore. If they "Exist" the historic or houses that were part of whatever town are generally repurposed. Bunch of foundations too can classify with proper history behind it.

It's owned by the Parks Commission, but they haven't decided what to do with it yet. https://www.invisiblethreads.com/galleries/toronto-power-generating-station/
It was built in 1885 by Thomas Fuller, who also designed the original Parliament Buildings. It was a post office, then customs house, before being purchased by the city as the police station. Designated a heritage site in 1978, when the police moved to a different building. https://www.historicplaces.ca/en/rep-reg/place-lieu.aspx?id=9791

This house burnt in October 2020. Wasn't really surprised when I found out, the last time I was there in September there was a mattress and pillow by the entry at the time (through the main floor bathroom window) there was also a small fire on the railway bridge behind the house the last day I visited. https://www.niagarathisweek.com/news-story/10221462-fire-consumes-niagara-falls-home-of-late-restaurant-owner/

Can anyone confirm if this is demolished? 2 other members believe it is.

This October it flipped over and moved closer to the falls in the high winds we''ve been having lately.
