Nikola Tesla
This statue was a gift from the former Yugoslavia to commemorate the American bicentennial and the 120th anniversary of Tesla's birth. The statue is located in Niagara Falls because it is where Telsa built the world's first hydroelectric generator. The generator was part of Tesla's development of AC power transmission, which triumphed over Edison's attempts to promote DC transmission. Tesla also invented the radio, but don't try telling them that in Signal Hill, Newfoundland.
