UTAH RISING
Move over, LDS Church Office Building. Step aside, Frank Gehry.
Sandy could land Utah's tallest building - make that buildings.
On Tuesday, the burb's City Council approved a new arts-and-culture land-use zone that allows towers up to 600 feet tall, paving the way for a 40-story high-rise, about 550 feet, near 10100 South and Interstate 15. That's just the first phase of The Proscenium, which calls for two additional 30- to 40-story buildings.
The LDS Church Office Building in downtown Salt Lake City is currently Utah's tallest, topping off at 28 stories and 435 feet. In Lehi, world-renowned architect Frank Gehry has plans to best that height with a 450-foot, five-star hotel.
But The Proscenium could dwarf even those architectural giants.
