NIAGARA BEAUTIFICATION COMMISSION SPOTLIGHT AWARD
Contributed by: Norma Higgs on 4/25/2008


The Niagara Beautification Commission Spotlight Award is presented each month to a business in Niagara Falls that has exemplified an outstanding contribution to the beauty of the City.

Somehow we missed the month of April (could it be that we were all working very hard on our Beautify Niagara clean up campaign?). In any event, our NBC Spotlight Award Commitee Members Joan Broderick, Mary Norton and Mary Jo Zacher selected the Crowne Plaza - Niagara Falls Hotel as the recipient for the month of May.

I met the Committee in the beautiful spacious lobby of the Crowne Plaza at 300 Third Street, right in the heart of the tourist area of downtown Niagara Falls. Geoffrey Reeds, Director of Sales and Marketing , proudly accepted our presentation plaque and the sign that will be placed prominently at this establishment during the month of May.

The Crowne Plaza is a highlight of downtown Niagara Falls. Located at 300 Third Street directly across from the Seneca Niagara Casino. This facility has a long history in Niagara Falls starting around the time of Urban Renewal as the Hilton Hotel. The Crowne Plaza group counts over four years in business and a more than $25 million dollar renovation as a major part of their success.This is the second largest renovation (which includes the purchase price) in fifty years in Niagara Falls.

According to their website, "This upscale Niagara Falls hotel offers 391 newly renovated guest rooms and suites, as well as over 17,000 square feet of flexible meeting space, located in the heart of the downtown tourist area. " Modern facilities incluse the Old Falls Sports Bar and Grille and the Starbucks Coffee with entrances inside the lobby and the outdoor area along Old Falls Blvd. Lunch and dinner is served daily in the Sports Bar which include 17 high definition TVs where you can watch the news and of course the BIG games. There is also the Old Falls Breakfast Room serving listing hot and delicious breakfast items daily and free parking, high speed wireless internet access in all guest rooms and public areas.

The lobby area is cheerful and comfortable and Mr. Reeds reported that occupancy has increased over the past four years .Discussions are still active with The Niagara County Community College Board of Trustees concerning a culinary school at this location.
