“The majority of Summerlin Las Vegas future real estate development will occur in the community’s southern and western regions,” Orrock said. “What many don’t realize is that Summerlin’s southern tip extends well beyond Russell Road and that its western boundary is formed by the Red Rock National Conservation Area that The Howard Hughes Corp. helped establish in the late 1980s via a real estate land exchange with the Bureau of Land Management.
Summerlin, Nevada began as a 25,000-acre parcel purchased by the legendary Howard Robard Hughes Jr. in the mid-1950s along the western rim of the Las Vegas Valley.
In the late 1980s, the community’s boundaries were further defined by the sale of land to other developers who went on to develop the adjacent communities of The Lakes, Peccole Ranch, Desert Shores and South Shores.
A 1987 land exchange with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) defined the community’s western boundaries before development began in earnest. Facilitated by The Nature Conservancy, the effort included an exchange of 5,000 Hughes-owned acres in environmentally sensitive areas for 3,000 BLM-owned acres inside the Las Vegas Valley.Â
