Bennett Glass & Paint Company and Kimball Block
Located in downtown Salt lake City, Utah – 65 W 100 S is the Bennett Glass and Paint Company, built in 1896 and the west half of it added in 1921.
Next door to the west is the Kimball Block.
I’m still hunting for some history of these but created this page to keep some photos until I have more information.

Anderson Drug
This building is a Neo-Classical style and was built before 1905. H.P. Larson owned it and he sold it to D.W. Anderson in 1910. It has been the Anderson Drug Store ever since. If you have time walk inside and note the original ceiling and the two old signs on the back wall.(*)

The Best-Cannon house is an excellent example of a Queen Anne Victorian cottage in Salt Lake City. It was designed by the firm of Monheim, Bird and Proudfoot, architects for the Salt Lake City and County Building, and built in 1893 by W.A. Wright for Elliot M.S. Best and his family. Best, an agent for the Morse Coe Shoe Company, built the west addition in 1897 for a cost of $85 as a dance studio for his daughter. The Bests lived here until 1906 when Angus M. Cannon, Jr., and his wife, Kate Lynch, bought the house.

Pine Valley
In 1855 this valley was discovered by Isaac Riddle an Indian Missionary, while searching for a lost cow. The first sawmill south of the rim of the Great Basin was built on this site in 1855-1856 by Robert Richey, Jehu Blackburn and Isaac Riddle.
The first homes in the valley were erected around the mill. Pine Valley became the source of much of the lumber used in early towns of souther Utah and Nevada.

I don’t know what to call this church but it is across the street from Swede Town Park so I’ll call it that while I try to research it. All I can find so far is that in 2017 a man being chased by police barricaded himself inside it and got stuck and called the police for help.
It looks very cool and historic and I’ll be looking for info.
