Overton Beach



 

History

Located just outside Las Vegas is Overton Beach.  The meaning of Las Vegas is meadows. This name was offered by the old Spanish travelers in the 1800s. Thirty Mormon missionaries were sent to the Valley of Las Vegas by Brigham Young during the year 1855. The fort built by them was the root cause of the settlement of whites in the region. Las Vegas emerged as a well developed city during the year 1911 due to the presence of a stop provided to the travelers situated in-between the places like Salt Lake City and San Bernardino. The Hoover dam was built during the 1930s and Nellis Air Force Base was constructed around 1940. Bugsy Siegel's Flamingo Hotel started during 1946 increased the importance of this place to a great extent.
