1952 Map of Sugar House

About this map

Salt Lake City spreads eastward toward the steep slopes of the Wasatch National Forest in this mid-century survey, capturing the suburban development of Sugar House and Rosslyn Heights. The urban landscape transitions from dense residential blocks and industrial markers like the Brick Kilns to the open recreational spaces of the Country Club and Bonneville Golf Course. A notable landmark of the era is the State Prison (Abandoned) south of Parleys Creek, situated just before the terrain rises into the deep canyons of the Wasatch Range.
