10 Luna Island Bridge
Luna Island Bridge
Another beautiful architectural structure is the bridge to Luna Island, which is adjacent to Goat Island. It was while climbing over the rocks directly under this island that the only accident that occurred at Niagara by the falling of rock happened. Dr. Hungerford, of troy, New York, was instantly killed by a mass of rock falling upon him, sixty years ago. From this island a superb view of the river below the falls, the inclined railway, and in the distance the Suspension Bridge, with their cables like the meshes of a spider web, is to be obtained.
