No, the Vancouver Dam and Hoover Dam are not the same. The Hoover Dam is located on the border between Nevada and Arizona, and it was completed in 1936, primarily for flood control, hydroelectric power, and water storage. The Vancouver Dam, on the other hand, is located in Vancouver, Washington, and is part of the Columbia River system, primarily serving water management and hydroelectric power generation as well. Each dam has distinct purposes, locations, and historical contexts.

When the dam was in its planning stages, in 1930, Herbert Hoover was President. It was then in 1930 that Secretary Ickes stated publicly that Hoover Dam was to be built, noting that naming a dam after a president was appropriate. In 1933, when Hoover was not re-elected, the name was reverted to Boulder Dam. It remained Bould Dam until 1947, when an act of Congress officially re-named the dam Hoover Dam.
