Four days later and all the flowers have waned.  I'm glad I took some images when I did.

Mather Park Gate

According to the attached writings, the land within this gateway was given to the people of Canada in 1928 by American citizen, Alonzo C. Mather.  The gateway was built in 1939 and dedicated in August 1940 to the perpetual friendship of the nations on either side of the Niagara River.

Whatchamajigger
