1898 Fire Insurance Maps and Atlas of Salt Lake City, Utah, Volume 2 Facsimile

In 1898 the Sanborn-Perris Map Co. of New York surveyed Salt Lake City for the fire-insurance trade, drawing the whole city at fifty feet to the inch in two volumes. Every building is shown to scale and colour-coded for construction, height and use, with street names, house numbers, hydrants, water mains and steam boilers noted. Volume Two opens on its own key map and then works block by block through the city east of Main Street from South Temple (Brigham Street) to Ninth South, the Avenues climbing toward the City Cemetery, Capitol Hill, Washington Square and the Joint City and County Building, the University and Fort Douglas districts, and the blocks west of Temple Square toward the railroad depots.
