Plumbing for Paradise Palms, the 1960s mid-century modern neighborhood around Las Vegas National Golf Club. Active Plumbing plans repipes around post-and-beam homes, camera-inspects cast iron drains and reroutes slab leaks to protect restored floors.
Paradise Palms broke ground on March 21, 1960 as Clark County's first master-planned community, laid out by Irwin Molasky and Merv Adelson around the course that opened as the Stardust Country Club and is now Las Vegas National Golf Club. Roughly 1,000 homes sit on 1,044 lots, about 400 of them designed by Palmer and Krisel and built between 1960 and 1964, with others by Hugh E. Taylor and William M. Bray. Flat, folded plate, butterfly and pyramid roofs make it the valley's best-known mid-century modern neighborhood, and since 2017 it has carried Clark County's first Historic Neighborhood Overlay, now about 240 acres west of Eastern Avenue and south of Desert Inn Road. Interior repairs do not change the character of the street, but exterior equipment such as a tankless unit or a treatment system on a visible elevation should be cleared with Clark County first.
