Fairmont (1040 East) is a streetcar stop in the Sugar House neighborhood of Salt Lake City, Utah, served by Utah Transit Authority's (UTA) S Line (previously known as the Sugar House Streetcar). The S Line provides service from this station to the city of South Salt Lake (where it connects with UTA's TRAX light rail system).
The Fairmont stop (previously referred to as McClelland) is located at 2216 South McClelland Street (1040 East), immediately west of McClelland Street on the north side of Sugarmont Drive. [2] The stop is on the southwest corner of the Granite Block.

The two side platforms are located on the far north and south sides tracks. There is very limited street side parking possible nearby, as well as possibly at Fairmont Park.
