Then and Now of the Karrick Block


A then (1890) and now (1986) view of the Karrick Block on Main St, Salt Lake City.

The adjacent Lollin Building has not been constructed in the 1890 photo, but the Karrick Block is easily located by the distinctive pinnacles (which are missing in the 1986 photo).

The tall building in the background of the 1986 photo is the Continental Bank Building, now Hotel Monaco.

Today, the Gallivan Plaza TRAX station and rails run down this section of Main Street. And the buildings north (right) of the Karrick Block are occupied by the 222 Tower.
