Marindale Avenue

This quaint, narrow street is unlike any other street in Logan. In 1888, the U.S. government deeded this property to Logan while William B. Preston was the mayor. After several owners, Marriner S. Eccles and Fred A. Dahle, two local businessmen, acquired the property in 1914. They divided it into plots, and created Logan’s first subdivision. They named it Marindale Avenue, using a combination of their names. The homes face each other and residents can visit back and forth from their neighboring porches. Maple trees were part of the street since its beginning, but were causing buckling and splitting of the sidewalk and curbs so the city replaced them with Linden trees.*

I am Ogden

Part of Ogden’s Pioneer Days 75th Celebration was to put out 60+ fiberglass horse sculptures painted in different ways. This is part of that series, the rest can be see on this page.

“I am Ogden” was created by Brian Nicholson.

Brian Nicholson was born in Ogden, Utah, grew up in Bountiful, and remembers the fascination of capturing his first photograph at the age of 10. That fascination eventually turned into a career in photography. After college, he began working at the Standard-Examiner as a staff photographer. His work has been featured in several national publications such as USA Today and the New York Times. His most recent project, a compilation of documentary portraits of the people of Ogden, was published in the 12×12-inch, 328-page art book I Am Ogden. He currently works at the Deseret News and lives in Ogden with his wife Amy and their four children, Sophie, Ian, Isaac and Katie.
