The History of Henderson, NV
Henderson, NV had a magnesium plant that closed in the 1920s, creating a mass exodus of its residents. Seeing all of the available housing and not wanting the town to die, Henderson went on the shortlist to be the home to Hoover Dam.
After being granted the contract, Hoover Dam started construction on the dam. Boulder City was created to build housing for the dam’s workers, but Boulder City had its drawbacks.
The problem with the housing in Boulder City was that Boulder City didn’t have any schools or medical facilities. It made sense for dam workers with families to live in Henderson, Nevada, which had schools and a hospital.
In 1941 the Basic Magnesium plant was revitalized. They built dorms for housing at Lake Mead and Boulder Highway. They were segregated, but many workers from the south flooded the area. Families of workers were houses in Carver Park – now West Las Vegas near Cashman Field.
After Hoover Dam Was Finished
When Hoover Dam was completed, World War II was going strong. A United States munitions plant opened at Black Mountain utilizing the nearby magnesium and capitalizing on unemployed dam workers. Many of the laid-off dam workers moved straight into jobs at the munitions plant and never left town.
Henderson’s residents voted to make Henderson an incorporated city in 1953. Incorporation meant that Henderson created its own Police and Fire Departments and a City of Henderson court system. The city consisted of 13 square miles and had a population of 7410 residents.
The miles of desert between Las Vegas and Henderson, that section with railroad access became Las Vegas’ industrial area. In the late 1970s, the owner of the Las Vegas Sun Newspaper, Alan Greenspun, started the American Nevada Company. His vision for the city became Green Valley.

The First Master Planned Community In Henderson, Nevada
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, The Las Vegas Strip exploded with implosions and construction. With 2-4 mega-resorts opening each year on and off The Strip, Green Valley became a convenient place to live.
First construction companies and crews needed houses and next hotel employees and their families bought houses. The Strip fueled massive growth.
Henderson’s City Planners anticipated growth but also planned for a slow down. In 1997 I sold a house in Henderson to a man who was hired to deal with the city’s slow-down. His job didn’t last long because he wasn’t needed.
Since 5000 people a month started relocating to the Las Vegas Valley, the growth has been explosive. Green Valley was the first Master-Planned Community in the Las Vegas Valley. Soon, Henderson implemented flood control plans and built major roads.
