- Description
- The Ice Jam of April 1909 occurred when seven miles of ice came over the Falls and down the Niagara River. Towers of ice up to forty feet high were recorded; wharfs(like McIntyre's Wharf shown here in this picture), were pushed off their piles and newspapers reported hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of damage to property along the riverbank.
