Clifton Hill

Clifton Hill is one of the major tourist areas in Niagara Falls, Ontario. The street, close to Niagara Falls and the Niagara River, leads from River Road on the Niagara Parkway to intersect with Victoria Avenue, and contains a number of gift shops, wax museums, haunted houses, video arcades, restaur

ants, hotels and themed attractions. It is a major amusement area and centre for night life. Properties on Clifton Hill are bought, sold and renamed frequently. The street is dominated by two primary property owners: the Harry Oakes Company (HOCO) and the Niagara Clifton Group. Comfort Inn, also part of Clifton Hill, closed in 2015 and was later demolished as part of a major development that included the Niagara Speedway go-kart track, an extension of the Great Canadian Midway video arcade, a zombie-themed 4D ride (Now a 4D ride named "Creepy Castle"), multiple snack stands, and a Ripley's Believe It or Not! Museum expansion. The expansion began in early 2016 and was completed in the summer of 2018.
