Infilling of Terrapin Point

[edit]

In Construction of Niagara River Remedial Works, Report to the International Joint Commission, United States and Canada, by The International Niagara Board of Control, published 30 September 1960, it says,

78. CEREMONIES. —— On 2 June 1954, the International Joint Commission held ceremonies on Goat Island to mark the start of excavation there, and on the Canadian side at the site of the control structure to mark the start of construction. There was a smaller ceremony at Niagara Falls, Ontario, 13 April 1955, at the start of work at the Canadian end of the Horseshoe Falls. An appropriate ceremony was held 3 November 1955 when the Terrapin Point fill area was turned over to the New York State Division of Parks.
