Truckee station

The Commercial Row–Brickelltown Historic District is a historic district in downtown Truckee, California. Developed from 1870 to 1930, the district includes the significant parts of Truckee's early commercial district. Due to several major fires, the district had several distinct construction and rebuilding periods; the fires also destroyed several significant buildings, including the stagecoach station which established the site of the city's downtown. To protect them from fires, most of the surviving commercial buildings were built with stone or brick. Once the Central Pacific Railroad was completed through Truckee in 1869, it became one of the city's main economic drivers; the Commercial Row district's businesses mainly catered to workers and travelers on the railroad. The Brickelltown district, meanwhile, housed and served workers in Truckee's other main industry, lumber. In the twentieth century, both industries declined due to economic shifts and the Great Depression; the city, and Commercial Row in particular, instead built a tourist economy on visitors to the region's recreational activities.The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 8, 2009.

The Barracuda Championship is a professional golf tournament on the PGA Tour in California. Founded in 1999, it is an alternate event played annually in August. Previously held at Montrêux Golf and Country Club outside Reno, Nevada, the tournament moved west in 2020 to Tahoe Mountain Club's Old Greenwood course in nearby Truckee, California. Until 2010, it was held in August, the same week as the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational. For its first three years, it had a full field of 156 players, while the World Golf Championship event had a field of about 40. When the WGC event expanded to about 80 players in 2002, the field for the Reno–Tahoe Open was reduced to 132 players. With the launch of the FedEx Cup in 2007, the tournament and the WGC event were moved from late to early August. In 2010 the Reno–Tahoe Open was played several weeks earlier, opposite the Open Championship in mid-July. This lasted only one year, as it returned to early August in 2011, opposite the WGC-Bridgestone. The purse in 2022 was $3.7 million, with a winner's share of $666,000. The Reno–Tahoe Open gained its first title sponsor for the 2008 event, the Legends at Sparks Marina. After two years the name was returned to "Reno–Tahoe Open" in 2010. Barracuda Networks became the title sponsor in 2014.The Reno–Tahoe Open is an alternate event, which means the winner does not earn a Masters Tournament invitation. The winner still earns 24 OWGR points, 300 FedEx Cup points, a two-year tour exemption, and entry to the PGA Championship. After flooding in West Virginia cancelled the Greenbrier Classic in 2016, the Reno–Tahoe Open was given the honor of awarding entry to the Open Championship to the leading non-exempt player. In August 2021, it was announced that from 2022 onward, the event would become a co-sanctioned event with the European Tour.
