Niagara is an unincorporated community in Marion County, Oregon, United States.[1][2] It is the site of the historic Niagara County Park, the first park to be created by the Marion County Park and Recreation Commission.
The park consists of a historic dam, begun in the 1890s.[3] A survey by the University of Oregon's engineering department reported that work on the dam had been abandoned by November 1904.[4]
