- Before it opened to the public in June 2007, the Preserve was home to many Southern Nevadans over the past centuries, including the Pueblo Peoples, Patayan and Numa, who used the Las Vegas Springs and Las Vegas Creek until Anglo-European settlers began ranching in the valley in the 1860s. As the town grew, the Springs could not meet peak demands. The Las Vegas Springs flows stopped altogether by 1962. In the 1970s, the Springs came close to being paved over by plans for an expressway. Dr. Claude Warren of UNLV conducted an archaeological survey in 1972 that found long-term human occupation of the site, helping reroute the new Expressway around the site. Concerned citizens and the Las Vegas Valley Water District successfully petitioned to add the springs to the National Register for Historic Places. To further preserve the historic site, the LVVWD Board of Directors approved a plan in 1997 to develop a preserve to protect and manage the cultural, natural and water resources of the site.
