Cozy neighborhood surrounded by nature, close to downtown Las Vegas
On the eastern outskirts of Las Vegas, Pittman-Henderson is tucked between the McCullough Mountains and a vast wetlands park, holding a bird viewing preserve at its core. And while the neighborhood is only 12 miles from all the excitement along the Strip, its character is cozy and serene. Amanda Bolton, Realtor with Knight Real Estate Group of LPT Realty, says, "As far as Las Vegas suburbs go, this is one with more opportunities to connect in nature. And when you're coming from this east side, there's less traffic than driving into Las Vegas from the west." Bordering Boulder Highway in northern Henderson, a city whose motto is "A place to call home," Pittman is the kind of place where locals hike trails, go bowling, shop at the indoor mall or catch a movie at Sunset Station.

Splash and play at parks, observe nature at central Henderson Bird Viewing Preserve
Families with kids head to Wells Park and Pool in the neighborhood for its playground and open fields. Tennis enthusiasts practice their backswing on lighted courts at Wells Park, and a fitness course offers open-air exercise. The splash pad and pool are open seasonally, hosting swim teams and lessons. There's also a popular splash pad at Weston Hills Park on the east side of Pittman. "If you're looking for the summer water scene, though," says Bolton, "you really need to go to Cowabunga Bay Water Park for the wave pool and slides. They also have special adult nights with cool, funky lighting everywhere and music. Or you can take your kids to the Henderson Bird Viewing Preserve over the summer as an educational opportunity." This 140-acre oasis at the Water Reclamation Facility is home to abundant migratory and native birds. "It's also a great first date," adds Bolton, "that's way more interesting than going to a bar. It's so beautiful and refreshing, and with the sounds of all the birds, it's just surreal." Clark County Wetlands Park to the north is patterned with paved and unpaved multiuse trails, perfect for weekend exploration. Golfers take lessons and tee off at the 18-hole Chimera Golf Club, just two miles east of Weston Hills Park, and relax after a round at the bar or restaurant.
The Henderson Bird Viewing preserve is home to many species of bird wildlife.
Open seasonally, the Henderson Bird Viewing Preserve is a sanctuary for winter migratory birds.

Stroll, shop and dine at Galleria Mall, Water Street and District at Green Valley Ranch
Just a mile or so west of Boulder Highway, Galleria at Sunset mall is filled with over 100 eateries, specialty retailers and department stores. "They have a really great food court, and they've remodeled within the last decade or so, and it's nice and cool inside," says Bolton. "You'll see a lot of seniors doing laps in the mornings." Two miles southeast of Pittman, the charming Water Street District is a destination for family-owned restaurants and unique boutiques. Enjoy a cold brew and live band on the massive patio at Gold Mine Tavern or Mexican favorites at Juan's Flaming Fajitas. "The perfect date night," adds Bolton, "is walking around the District at Green Valley Ranch. Have dinner at Bella Vita, save room for dessert and walk around the district with an ice cream from Ben and Jerry's." For grocery runs, Albertsons and Smith's supermarkets are a short drive south, and if casino fun is on the table, Jokers Wild is a neighborhood favorite for games and slots.
Adjacent to the Water Street District, Water Street Plaza features gathering places for events.

Dry heat, flash flooding
"We're a dry, desert-hot climate here," says Bolton. "As you get closer to mountains, Lake Las Vegas or Kyle Canyon, it might get a couple degrees cooler, but overall, it's very hot, and our water is very hard, so you'll need a water softener in your home." Southern Nevada is also known to experience flash flooding during heavy summer rainfalls. Homeowners can check with the Clark County Regional Flood Control District for information regarding their property.
Celebrate at Water Street Plaza events
The amphitheater at Water Street Plaza hosts some of the area's most anticipated events, from movie and game viewings on the lower plaza's 42-foot-wide digital screen to the annual three-day St. Patrick's Day Festival and Parade on Water Street.
