Old Custom House
Niagara Falls, Niagara County
  
  
landmark status: Local, State and National Register-listed.
  
threat: deterioration, lack of funding.
  
This 1863 limestone structure functioned as a custom house for most of its life with short periods of commercial use. Vacant for seven years, the City of Niagara Falls acquired the property in 2003. The vision is to integrate this building into the planned International Intermodal Transportation Center but significant deterioration and a lack of funding threaten this reuse. The League can assist with strategies for fundraising and review of the design for the Center.
