Its’ a street unlike any in the city – a boulevard of grand proportions, the residence of governors, senators, mining magnates, religious leaders and merchants. From 1880 to the 1930s, the vast majority of Utah’s wealthiest residents lived along Brigham Street in the most lavish and opulent neighborhood the region had ever seen. While many of those homes still stand on South Temple, many more are gone forever. Those that remain tell the story of a society at its peak and a neighborhood of unrivaled wealth and architectural splendor. Discover the story of Brigham Street, those who called it home and such historic structures as the Cathedral of the Madeleine, the Devereaux Mansion, and the Kearns Mansion.
