Driving Around Summerlin, Nevada in 4k Video

Filmed on Monday, February 12 2024, I drive around Las Vegas suburb Summerlin, NV to see what's going on.
In 1952, the film director, aviator, and casino mogul Howard Hughes purchased 25,000 acres of land in Southern Nevada, making him the Las Vegas Valley's largest landowner.
Despite his initial intentions, he ultimately chose not to relocate his company to Nevada, so the purchased land remained undeveloped and empty for decades. After Hughes died of kidney failure in 1976, the Summa Corporation was organized by his heirs to oversee his vast business empire and land holdings.
In 1988, the corporation announced that they would be developing the empty acres of land into a master-planned commercial and residential community. They named the project "Summerlin", after Hughes' paternal grandmother, Jean Amelia Summerlin.
By the end of 1990, the construction of Summerlin's first residential village, park, and school had been completed. New home construction continued to boom through the turn of the century. From 1997 to 2007, Summerlin was consistently ranked as the #1 community in the nation for new home sales.
City National Arena, opened in 2017, is located in Summerlin. It serves as a practice facility for the Vegas Golden Knights NHL franchise and is also the home arena of the UNLV Rebels hockey program. Summerlin is also home to Las Vegas Ballpark, opened in 2019 and home of the Las Vegas Aviators minor league baseball team.
