I think I saw one picture of grit.. in suburban Salt Lake Holy bologna Moroni! My Mormon mother in law always uses that last one. Some of the infill reminds me of Denver.

Who doesn't like stucco?

Ogden gets a bad reputation, but from your pics you would never know. It looks like downtown is heading in the right direction! Well, for the most part; those stucco buildings could use a little more pizaz.

Ogden certainly has a wonderful location with that stunning mountain backdrop. I can see why my cousin, who grew up where I did in flat boring Northwest Ohio, seems to be quite happy living in Salt Lake City.

Great shots! You made Ogden look good! Ogden gets a bad rap, but I actually really like downtown.

Wow, impressive downtown. Nice tour!

Nice pictures. Ogden looks better than I thought it would.

Seems like there's quite a bit of development taking place there

Nice tour, and Ogden looks pretty good. I really like that Municipal Building. But this is my favorite shot (with some downtown buildings and those great mountains):

Thanks.

Looks like more than a few trucks have scraped the walls of this narrow alley while passing through:

Thanks for all the comments. Ogden is a pretty nice little town and a lot is changing there. UTA is currently holding public meetings for a planned streetcar line to connect downtown and the FrontRunner station to the university and McKay-Dee hospital.

So that's what it looks like. Nice.

Nice shots! Can't wait until Frontrunner extends south of SLC

Ogden is pretty much a mini-Salt Lake.

It's surprising at how similar the cities are, especially with the foothills and the railroad tracks. Of course, I think area around downtown Ogden, outside of the western area, looks far more cleaner and nicer than Salt Lake.
