Cyanamid

A while back Jen & I went for a walk along a new section of walking path in Niagara Falls. The new path follows along the hydro canal finishing near the former site of the Cyanamid Plant.

Slightly off the beaten path we found a few remnants of the old chemical plant.

First we spotted a square concrete column (photo on the right) broken into 2 pieces. It's appears to be the stone pillar/lamp post that stood by the guard house at the entrance gate.  Vintage photos can be seen here & here for comparison.



The second thing we found was much more definitive, the stone Bar  B Que that was in the picnic area. It was/is in remarkably  good condition. Once we got home we searched for a vintage photo online. A piece of the Bar B Que can just barely be seen in this photo. I'm sure we found at least one clear shot the  Bar B Que,  but I can't seem to find it again.


To see the rest of the photo's from our walk you can go to this Flickr group
