The High Desert State Prison is the largest major institution in the Department of Corrections. It is the first institution in what will become a large southern Nevada prison complex. High Desert was designed to incorporate much of the best technology available to corrections to provide for officer safety and the management and control of inmates. The complex totals approximately 1,576,000 square feet of space. The institution opened September 1, 2000 and became the reception unit for Southern Nevada.
