An engineering feat like none other in its time, Hoover Dam hides in one of the world's deepest reservoirs, many known and untold stories of personal sacrifice, hardship, benevolence and above all, tales of success in times of great adversities.
Hoover Dam, Boulder City and a Changing World
Hoover Dam, one the largest dams ever built, took over 4 years and 100s of lives before its completion. The history behind its creation reveals the turmoil of a nation reeling under economic backlash from the 1929 Stock Market Crash. It also showcases the undying spirit of jobless families who braved the uninhabitable Boulder Canyon desert's extremes in temperature, to create a modern day miracle.
Today a symbol of the thriving American economy, and widely captured in Hollywood movies for its striking dimensions and spectacular setting, Hoover Dam, on the Boulder Canyon, near the historic Boulder City, infringing on the quaint Lake Mead nearby, offers a lot more than mere sightseeing opportunities.
