This somewhat iconic building on the Niagara waterfront, just upriver of the Niagara Horseshoe Falls, has sat empty since the mid 1970's.
The empty building now has an eerie appearance, sitting grand and neglected at such a location. no wonder there are many stories of ghosts and haunting from within this building:
from Ghostwalks.com:
The ghost stories of this building are told by urban explorers, aka people who gain access to abandoned buildings for documentation and photography. Their motto, “Leave it as you found it”
Wandering inside at the dead of night hearing only the muffled sounds of rushing water. Explorers have said the building will start to rumble. Their guess it’s the sounds of basement turbines firing up. It’s strange because power hasn’t run through the building in 40 years.
Others have been with small groups wander one part of the building. They’ve heard voices from the original offices and plant floor.
Said it was whispers, muffled talking through walls. Thinking it’s another group of urban explorers, they run to greet them wanting to show off their photographs and talk about the building. Around the corner and into a dark empty space as the talking stopped and they see the room is empty.
