1087 1st Avenue

This impressive Queen Anne style house was built in 1903 for Marvin W. Newcomb, a professional photographer, who lived here only two years. Subsequent owners included a Utah state treasurer, a bank president, a former U.S. marshal, and both grammatic and managing editors for the Salt Lake Tribune. The complex roof and building massing, corner tower, and detailing in the brick, windows, and woodwork, are characteristic of the Queen Anne style and contribute to the character of the historic district.
