Hoover Dam


Hoover Dam, a concrete arch-gravity dam on the Colorado River during the Great Depression, sits on the border between the states of Arizona and Nevada. Its generators provide power for public and private utilities in Nevada, Arizona, and California, but it is also a major tourist attraction (approximately 30 minutes from Las Vegas).
Further details about the Hoover Dam can be read here. This photo was captured on the bridge across from the dam (by Highway 93), and the shadow reflected the shape of the bridge, which in itself another great piece of architectural achievement.
