Adams Hydroelectric Plant Entrance - Niagara Falls, NY - Preserved Architectural Remnants and Ruins on Waymarking.com

This is the original arch entrance to the Adams Power Plant, the world's first hydroelectric power generating station. Electric power, generated by water turbines to be transmitted over long distances, all started with the completion of the Adams Station in 1895 at Niagara Falls. Larger, more efficient power plants rendered the Adams Plant obsolete and it was demolished. The entrance to the plant was taken down piece by piece and re-erected on this site in 1966 to commemorate the tremendous impact which the generation of electric power at the Adams Station gave to civilization throughout the world.

The archway is located on Goat Island within Niagara Falls State Park. There is no admission fee to enter the park, but depending upon the time of the day and year, there will be a fee to park your car.

Type: Remnant Fee: No fee to see it, but there may be a fee to park. Hours: Park hours are sunrise to sunset. Related URL: [Web Link]
