Downtown Salt Lake - City Hall
I couldn't resist posting this pic when I saw it this morning.
This magnificent 'Richardsonian Romesque' beauty was recently restored to it's pristine condition.
Also included in the restoration, was the seismic upgrade of the entire structure.
The seismic upgrade included placing the building on giant shock absorbers, which will allow for a great deal of ground/structural movement in the event of a major earthquake.
This historical masterpiece sits accross from Salt Lake City's newest structural gem," The Moshe Safdie Library," which was covered at the top of page 3.
City Hall, Salt Lake City
