Niagara Falls State Park Welcome Center
Architect: GWWO
Installer: Hogan Glass
Location: Niagara Falls, New York
VS1 was selected for the glass perimeter of the new Niagara Falls Welcome Center. The entrance facade spans 16', and the gallery wall reaches 30' clear via a sloping ground elevation transition. The project utilized the bullet VS1 jumbo mullion and toggle fittings (no exterior metal) with 6' 6" glass bay spacing. The simplicity and minimalist aesthetic VS1 achieved met the architect’s design goals.
“The majestic nature that is Niagara Falls is the destination, but this building creates an immersive architectural and educational experience that is meant to reinforce and deepen the experience of visiting the Falls and the entire Niagara River Gorge region.”
