The 1 1/2 story Thomas Quayle House was moved to its present location in October of 1975. An important extant example of the Carpenter’s Gothic Style, it has been restored for use as the Utah Heritage Foundation Headquarters, and is entirely compatible with the architectural flavor of the neighborhood. The steep gables, corner wood quoins, decorative bargeboard and Eastlakian porch treatment contribute to the Carpenter’s
Gothic character. – Diana Johnson
