Those plans include private developments for businesses, retail, apartments and restaurants.
“What we wanted to come down here today for is to get more specific information,” said Dave Alderman. “So the displays, the boards give a lot of good information about the scope of the project, the layout, the parking. So it’s very well, a lot of great information here today.”
Dave and his wife Kumi have commercial property just down the street from the site and say this development could be very beneficial to them.
“Seeing this site feels real,” said Kumi. “I’m glad the city had this event.”
The 172-year-old Salt Lake City Cemetery is the largest municipally-owned cemetery in the country. Many of the city and state's most influential residents are buried on its 120-acre grounds.
