A view of a section of the Gateway District,
Downtown Salt Lake's newest and quickly expanding western sector.
This was historically the heart of the old railroad district. In addition
to its revived status as the urban chic place to be, it also now serves
as the central hub of the entire metro's light rail and commuter rail
services. Notice the FrontRunner Commuter in the upper right corner.

The Ombudsman Hall. This much loved, old
historic treasure was lifted and turned 180 degrees recently. It will
now be move to the right and then across the street to sit next to
it's beautiful neighbor, The New York, pictured behind. This is being
done in order to make room for a new federal courthouse. The entire community has collectively held it's breath,
worried that the building could possibly fall apart. Engineers, politicians,
and citizens alike will rest much easier when the Hall is resting on it's
new foundation.

City Creek Construction Site ~ At the heart of Downtown
Richard's Court, These residential units will serve as a gateway entrance to the newly resurrected Richard's Street. This street was a bustleing center of commerce for many decades during the 19th and first half of the 20th century, but was destroyed
to make room for an enclosed Mall. Fortunately, times have changed and
hard lessons have been learned.

New Regent Tower begins to rise. This luxurious
tower will serve as a Gateway to the newly resurrected Regent Street. Another historic street, which had been buried will now emerge
as a hub of elegant shops and restaurants, "Salt Lake City's version of Via Veneto."

In the middle of it all, this historic beauty was
deemed obsolete,(would cost more to bring up to standards than
demolish and build new.) Thankfully, the uproar of the community was
so loud and united, that the demolition proponents backed down and
agreed to it's upgrade and restoration.
