2011 Map of Sugar House

About this map

Sugar House serves as a prominent commercial and residential hub within the southeastern reaches of Salt Lake City, characterized by a dense grid that transitions abruptly into the steep canyons of the Wasatch Range. The 2011 landscape is defined by its social infrastructure, featuring numerous cemeteries such as Wasatch Lawn Memorial Park and Elysian Burial Gardens, alongside local landmarks like Hogle Zoological Gardens and the Wheeler Historic Farm. The transition from urban centers like Holladay and Murray to the wilderness of Parleys Canyon and Mount Olympus is marked by Wasatch Blvd, which skirts the base of peaks including Grandeur Peak and Hobbs Peak. Waterways like Emigration Creek and Parleys Creek flow from these highlands into the valley, while the presence of specific postal facilities like the Sugar House Station Post Office and Cottonwood Post Office provides essential points of reference for local genealogy and neighborhood history.
