Prospect Point

Another popular vantage point for viewing the Falls is Prospect Point.  Prospect Point is located on the American side of the Niagara River, next to the American Falls.   It provides an impressive view of the American Falls and Horseshoe Falls.   Like Table Rock, it has also experienced rock falls, most notably in the 1930s and 1950s.
