193-room Hotel Niagara headed to the auction block
From the Buffalo News:
The once-elegant 12-story Hotel Niagara, built in 1924 with 193 rooms, is going on the foreclosure auction block.
The hotel, which has been closed for some time, has fallen on hard economic times and needs modernization if it is to remain competitive. It has been the subject of a mechanic’s lien, owes back taxes and has been condemned for occupancy because of the lack of heat and water during a reconstruction effort.

Condemnation for Hotel Niagara?
From the Niagara Gazette:
It appears as though the old Hotel Niagara is headed for condemnation.
City council members learned Monday that a recent inspection of the Rainbow Boulevard property revealed several areas of concern, including the lack of electricity, heat and an operational fire protection system inside the building.
Chief Code Enforcement Officer Dennis Virtuoso stopped short of saying the building would be condemned but said representatives from his office would pay a visit sometime today.
