Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book narrates the journey of the Commissioners of the State Reservation at Niagara as they grapple with juggling the development of power and hydroelectric energy with preserving the natural beauty of the iconic Niagara Falls. From their discussions on the recession of the Horseshoe Falls, possible fixes, and the environmental impact of an elevator at the Cave of the Winds to debates about the Empire Power Company's request for more water intake and the fate of the International Hotel property, the book delves into the history of the region's conservation efforts against the backdrop of increasing demand for resources during the first two decades of the 20th century. Through meeting minutes, correspondence, and legal opinions, the book offers a unique glimpse into the challenges faced in balancing economic interests with environmental protection. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
