South Temple was first conceptualized in 1833 on Joseph Smith’s Plat of Zion. It was designed to be the finest and most prominent street in Salt Lake City. In the late 1800s the wealthiest families in the city built their mansion along South Temple, from downtown to 1300 E. Saturday, May 5th, is your chance to tour some of these famed residences thanks to Utah Heritage Foundation’s 41st Annual Historic Homes Tour.
The tour will begin at 10am and continue until 5pm. Tickets are $15 per person for advance tickets, and $20 at the door. Tickets are available online or by calling 801-533-0858. For more information visit Utah Heritage Foundation.
