Niagara Falls Frozen In 1911

November 11, 2011
In 1911 the people of Niagara Falls witness something rare the morning of February residents said that when they woke up something felt wrong and unusual it took them a while but they finally realized that it was the lack of noise outside.

The residents of Niagara Falls have become so a custom to the roar of the falls that the silence was unusual enough to alert their senses. At the time nearly all the houses were built near the falls.

These Pictures date back 100 years old.
