T
he Hoover Dam was one of the
largest man-made structures in the
world at the time of its construction
in the 1930s. Originally known as the Boul-
der Dam (as on the brochure on the left), it
was renamed in 1947 after President Her-
bert Hoover. And, in addition to a tourist at-
traction, it provides irrigation and hyrdo-
electric power to California and Arizona.
