Not at all. We have other achievements that outway the Hoover Dam. Such as landing on the moon. Becoming an independent nation was probably the most important and will forever be. Th Golden Gate Bridge could even be called more interesting than the Hoover Dam. Although it is a major dam and has some history behind it landing on the moon was probably our best achievement.
