What are 5 interesting facts about the Hoover Dam?

Here are five interesting facts about the Hoover Dam: 1) The immense pressure from Lake Mead, the reservoir it created, triggered a series of earthquakes in the region. 2) Enough concrete was used to build a two-lane road from San Francisco to New York City. 3) While built for power, the dam's primary purpose was flood control for the Colorado River. 4) The dam was originally named Boulder Dam by the Roosevelt administration before being officially renamed Hoover Dam in 1947. 5) Building the dam led to the creation of Boulder City, a planned community to house the thousands of workers and their families.
