Located at Simcoe at Gage Street is SAINT ANDREW'S PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. Sunday Services is at 11:00 a.m.
I will quote from the plaque located in front of the church, which tells a little bit about its history. "Presbyterians formed a congregation at Niagara in 1794 with John Dun as resident minister. Within a year they had built a church and by 1802 a schoolhouse. American troops burned the church during the War of 1812 claiming that British soldiers had used the steeple as an observation post. The congregation held services in the schoolhouse until 1831 when under the leadership of the Reverend Robert McGill they built the church. Restored but little altered, St. Andrew's is a splendid example of Greek Revival architecture. The Church interior, classically Georgian in design, retains the original high pulpit and box pews."

This is the third and only surviving Court House erected for the former Niagara District . Constructed between 1846 and 1848, it was designed by a prominent Toronto architect in neoclassical style favoured for 19th century public buildings. Located on Queen Street, the NIAGARA DISTRICT COURT HOUSE or Le Palais de Justice du District de Niagara, became the Town Hall in 1862. Restored in 1981as the town's bicentennial project, the building houses a refurbished Lord Mayor's Chambers, the Chamber of Commerce and Parks Canada offices. During the Shaw Festival season, an intimate 327 seat theatre operates from within the Court House. Leave a Comment

Built in 1903, the LIGHTHOUSE marks the entrance to the Niagara River. Standing only 45 feet tall, it is constructed of wood and has a bright red light on top. Still in use today to aid ships with navigation.
On location is also a water sampling lab servicing the Niagara region. Leave a Comment
