The Niagara Reporter wishes to extend all the best in the future to the new souvenir shop opening at 616 Niagara St., Tugby’s, named for Thomas Tugby who opened one of the first souvenir stores back 75 years ago near the Goat Island Bridge and later at Falls and Prospect St.

Nico Santangelo and partner Nicholas Hurd, the founder of Explore Niagara and Niagara Adventure Tours, have worked to turn the first floor of the Niagara St. shop into retail space, according to a front page story today in the Niagara Gazette.

The building is owned by TM Montante, according to Gazette, and was home to Niagara University’s TReC business incubator.
