Scope and Contents

The Devereaux House, 334 West South Temple. 02:12.

Louise Degn's note: This mansion fascinated me the most of all three. I could see the elegance underneath the wreck and thought it would never have the chance at revival since it was in an industrial part of the city. Little did I realize that the western part of downtown Salt Lake City would soon become as valuable as the eastern part. The mansion was included on the National Register of Historic Places in March of 1971, six months after this story aired. In 1979, the State of Utah purchased the building. It was renovated and turned into a restuarant as part of the Triad Center development in 1984-1985. Original script available.
