Hoover Dam Art Deco

The bas-relief in Art Deco style celebrating benefits of the Hoover dam displayed on the elevator towers at the Hoover Dam, Nevada and Arizona. Hoover Dam, once known as Boulder Dam, is a concrete arch-gravity dam in the Black Canyon of the Colorado River, on the border between the U.S. states of Arizona and Nevada. When completed in 1936, it was both the world's largest hydroelectric power generating station and the world's largest concrete structure. It was surpassed in both these respects by the Grand Coulee Dam in 1945. It is currently the world's 38th-largest hydroelectric generating station
