Hoover DamHoover Dam is a testimony to a country's ability to construct monolithic projects in the midst of adverse conditions. Built during the Depression; thousands of men and their families came to Black Canyon to tame the Colorado River. It took less then 5 years, in a harsh and barren land, to build the largest dam of its time. Now, more then 60 years later, Hoover Dam still stands as a world-renowned structure. The dam is a National Historic Landmark and has been rated by the American Society of Civil Engineers as one of America's Seven Modern Civil Engineering Wonders. Hoover Dam is located just past Henderson Nevada and is a short drive from Las Vegas.

The Old Las Vegas Mormon Fort State Historic Park

Constructed by Mormon missionaries in 1855, this is the oldest building in Las Vegas. The Old Fort has served as many things, including a store, barracks, and a concrete-testing laboratory for Hoover Dam. A tour guide presents the history orally, while display boards present it visually. In 1995, a project was begun to re-create the original fort, complete with spring and creek, and the subsequent ranch houses.
