Learn about the history of the Rail City on a virtual walking tour through Victorian Square and Downtown Sparks. Hear about how this area has transformed itself from a railroad hub to a vibrant commercial district, into a rundown urban area before successful redevelopment changed the image and future of the city. We discuss some of the buildings and sites that have played an important role in the history and development of Sparks and Nevada. This talk is in collaboration with the Sparks Heritage Museum (www.sparksmuseum.org).
