A failed bid to host the 1953 Worldcon in Niagara Falls, NY. Little is known about it today, though it finished last in the voting at Chicon II, it was still ahead of three other bids which did not even enter the vote. The winning 1953 Philly bid went on to run Philcon II.

See 1953 Worldcon Site Selection for details on the large number of bidders.
