Description

The house is located at 229 South 1200 East and what is today the "East Central" neighborhood. It was built in 1890 for Charles Baldwin, who served as United States Commissioner and Referee in Bankruptcy for the United States District Court from 1898 to 1921. [2] Baldwin was also at one time the president of the Salt Lake City Board of Education and the Utah State Bar Association. [2] His house was designed in the Victorian Eclectic style, with Queen Anne and Eastlake features. [2] It was acquired in 1921 by Louis A. Thody, an immigrant from England who founded the X-Ray Department at the LDS Hospital and later co-founded the Coray-Thody X-Ray Laboratory. [2] The house has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since February 11, 1982. [1]

The Knight–Mangum House is a historic house located in Provo, Utah, United States. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The mansion was built in the old English Tudor style, completed in 1908. It was built for Mr. W. Lester Mangum and his wife Jennie Knight Mangum. Mrs. Mangum was the daughter of the famous Utah mining man, Jesse Knight. The lot was purchased for $3,500 and the home was built at a cost of about $40,000. The Mangum family was able to afford the home due to the fact that they had sold their shares in Jesse Knight's mine located in Tintic, Utah, for eight dollars a share. They had purchased the shares for only twenty cents a share, so the excess allowed them enough funds to purchase the home. The contractors for the home were the Alexandis Brothers of Provo.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Yalecrest</span> United States historic place

Yalecrest is an affluent residential neighborhood located on the East Bench of Salt Lake City and is known for the architectural variety and rare collection of turn-of-the-century homes – all within a six block radius bordered by the South Side of Sunnyside Avenue, North Side of 1300 South, East Side of 1300 East and West Side of 1900 East. Yalecrest is commonly referred to as the "Harvard-Yale area" and several streets are named after Ivy League universities. It is a remarkably visually cohesive area with uniform setbacks, historic houses of the same era with comparable massing and landscaping, as well as streets lined with mature shade trees, and a surprising level of contributing structures that retain their historic integrity. Yalecrest contains 1,487 homes that were built in the early 20th century starting as early as 1912 with the vast majority (74%) built during the period of 1920–1940. The remaining homes in the easternmost part of the neighborhood were built during the post war boom. Yalecrest has the largest concentration of period revival English Cottages, English Tudors, French Norman and Spanish Colonial homes anywhere in Utah. These houses exhibit a variety of period revival styles with the largest portion being English Tudor and English Cottage. According to the Salt Lake City Planning Department, the architectural variety and concentration of period cottages found in Yalecrest are "unrivalled in the state." Examples from Yalecrest are used to illustrate period revival cottages styles in the only statewide architectural style manual. There are 22 subdivisions which were platted and built by the prominent architects and developers of the day responsible for early 20th Century east side Salt Lake City development.. Yalecrest has been on the National Register of Historic Places since November 8, 2007. One home in the neighborhood, the George Albert Smith home at 1302 Yale Avenue, is listed on the National Register since 1993.
