New Hotel & Casino Planned for Niagara Falls
Plans for a major redevelopment in Niagara Falls have been approved, with a new hotel and casino set to reshape the city's skyline. The project will involve transforming the Oakes Hotel site into a 60-storey building, making it the tallest structure in the city and potentially one of the tallest hotels in the country. The approval for the redevelopment was granted by the city council in early October, marking one of the most significant developments in Niagara Falls in decades.
A New Landmark in the Tourist District
Located in the heart of Niagara Falls' tourist area, the new complex will stand near Horseshoe Falls, offering 1,140 hotel suites and 126 residential units. The casino will be situated on the second floor, although details on its size have not yet been released. In addition, the new building will feature an on-site restaurant to complement the resort.
Impact on Local Gaming and Economy
The new hotel and casino are expected to have a considerable impact on Niagara Falls' gaming industry. For years, Fallsview Casino and Casino Niagara have dominated the local market, but this new addition is likely to bring increased competition to the area.
The project is expected to generate significant economic benefits, with the Niagara Falls City Council projecting that it will attract millions of dollars in investment and create over 2,500 full-time and part-time jobs. The redevelopment has been met with enthusiasm from local officials, with Mayor Jim Diodati referring to the project as a "new jewel in the crown of Niagara Falls," and Councillor Patel calling it a "game-changer" for the city's tourism and skyline.
Construction Timeline
While there is no finalized construction timeline yet, demolition of the current Oakes Hotel will not begin until the developer is prepared to start building. It is hoped that construction will begin within the next year.
Though it may take some time before the project is completed, the redevelopment of the Oakes Hotel is expected to bring lasting changes to the hospitality and gaming landscape in Niagara Falls.
FlameKiller1 Cool selection! Thanks to the author, I was just looking for something to ride on the weekend.
Hellworkers So much for "consumer care". As soon as they are strangled with taxes, everyone will really go to left-wing offices.

Over 2,500 jobs is fantastic news for the local economy! This project could really help boost employment in the area, which is much needed after recent challenges.
A 60-storey hotel will be a sight to behold! I’m looking forward to seeing how it complements the natural beauty of Niagara Falls while providing new entertainment options.
I'm cautiously optimistic about this development. It sounds promising, but I hope it doesn't negatively impact the local community or the existing businesses. Balance is key!
With the introduction of this new casino, the competition in Niagara Falls is about to heat up! I hope it brings some fresh offerings to the gaming scene and benefits the players.
This new hotel and casino sounds like an exciting addition to Niagara Falls! I can't wait to see how it changes the skyline and enhances the tourism experience in the area.
