“Small” Lake City keeps growing up.
Need proof? Check out the ever-rising skyline, where 2021 and 2022 will bring three new skyscrapers to the heart of Utah’s capital:
• The 24-story Liberty Sky apartment tower, climbing 250 feet.
• The 25-story 95 State at City Creek office complex, soaring 393 feet.
• The 26-story Hyatt Regency convention center hotel, climbing 375 feet.
None of these high-rises will displace the city’s top two skyscrapers in terms of height. Those are the 26-floor Wells Fargo Center on Main Street (at 422 feet) and the 28-story LDS Church Office Building (420 feet). (It’s a myth that Salt Lake City ever had a rule against building anything taller than the North Temple behemoth housing offices for the state’s predominant faith.)
