The Cottonwood Paper Mill (also known as Granite Paper Mill) is an abandoned stone structure located at the mouth of Big Cottonwood Canyon in Cottonwood Heights, Utah. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.It was built in 1883 by the Deseret News under the direction of Henry Grow. Workers used paper making equipment brought in from the old Sugar House Paper Mill to grind logs from nearby canyons into pulp. Rags gathered from old clothes were also used to produce the pulp, which was then placed into molds and dried. During its operation, the mill could yield up to 5 tons of paper per day. The mill provided jobs and paper for nearly ten years; the railroad increased the demand for cheaper paper manufactured outside the area. In 1892, the Cottonwood Paper Mill was sold to Granite Paper Mills Company. On April 1, 1893, a fire broke out among its indoor stored stockpile of paper. Many hearing the alarm thought it an April Fools' Day prank. All that remained following the fire was a stone skeleton. The structure was partially rebuilt in 1927 for use as an open-air dance hall, known as the Old Mill Club, and remained so until the 1940s. In the late 1960s, rock bands played there on Friday and Saturday nights. It was also used in the 1970s and 1980s as a haunted house and a craft boutique. It was declared a historic site by the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers in 1966, and was condemned by the city of Cottonwood Heights in 2005.

The Morton A. Cheesman House, at 2320 Walker Lane in what is now Holladay, Utah, was built in 1912–13. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.It is a two-story Craftsman-style house with a cobble-rock base.It was designed by the Salt Lake City firm of Ware & Treganza, which had principals Walter Ware and Alberto O. Treganza. Its significance:The Mort Cheesmen House, built in 1912-13, is significant as one of a very limited number of large scale Craftsman houses in Utah, and as an outstanding and unique example of that type. It is one of two monumental and unique Craftsman homes designed by the successful Salt Lake architectural firm, Ware and Treganza, the other example being the Knight-Mangum house in Provo. Alberto O. Treganza, the principal designer of the firm, had worked for the famous San Diego firm of Hebbard and Gill, and the design of the Cheesman house may reflect the influence of that experience. It is a distinctive example of the Craftsman style because of its single axis orientation, and its unorthodox point of entry. The combination of stucco and cobble rock as building materials, while not unusual, is not common in Utah, especially in large homes. It was more often reserved for use in Craftsman Bungalows.

Big Cottonwood Canyon is a canyon in the Wasatch Range 12 miles (19 km) southeast of Salt Lake City in the U.S. state of Utah. The 15-mile (24 km)-long canyon provides hiking, biking, picnicking, rock-climbing, camping, and fishing in the summer. Its two ski resorts, Brighton and Solitude, are popular among skiers and snowboarders. The canyon is accessed by The Big Cottonwood Canyon Scenic Byway (SR-190), which runs its length to Guardsman Pass at the top of the canyon, allowing travel to Park City in the summer months. Guardsman Pass is closed during the winter months and is a popular snowshoe hiking destination for many Utahns. Hiking to the canyon's mountain lakes is popular, with many trails leading to lakes such as Mary, Martha, and Katherine. The canyon's most popular hiking trail leads to Lakes Blanche, Florence and Lillian. The trail is 3.1 miles (5.0 km) long and a strenuous hike. Since the canyon was formed by Big Cottonwood Creek, the V-shaped canyon has many impressive rock forms. The canyon is also a frequent destination for Utah Native Plant Society wildflower walks and for University of Utah botanical field trips. The canyon and the adjoining Little Cottonwood Canyon contain significant biodiversity and are home to a number of rare and endemic plant species. One example is the Wasatch shooting star, Dodecatheon dentatum var. utahense which is only known from Big Cottonwood Canyon. Big Cottonwood Canyon is a watershed canyon that supplies drinking water to the Wasatch Front, therefore, pets and other domesticated animals are not allowed. In November 2011, a proposal to construct a gondola linking Solitude Ski Resort through Big Cottonwood Canyon to the Canyons Resort in Summit County drew criticism over concerns about its potential effect on sensitive terrain and watershed impacts.Parts of two little known slasher films, Berserker (1987) and Iced (1988), were shot in Big Cottonwood Canyon. Parts of How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000) were filmed at Solitude Mountain Resort, in Big Cottonwood Canyon.

The Ross Hame, at 4769 S Holladay Blvd. in Holladay, Utah, also known as the William Harvey and Sarah Seegmiller Ross House, was built in 1922–23. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2018. The listing included two contributing buildings, a contributing structure, and a non-contributing building, on 1.35 acres (0.55 ha).It was commissioned by William Harvey Ross, who had been president of the Gunnison Sugar Company, an entity financially rescued by William Wrigley Jr., the big chewing gum manufacturer. It was designed by architects Walter E. Ware, Alberto O. Treganza, and Georgius Y. Cannon.According to its National Register nomination, "Ross Hame is a three-story Tudor Revival villa covered with heavy, roughcast stucco. This stucco has been painted white since at least the 1950s but was likely unpainted or painted a different color when the house was new. The stucco finish is interspersed by false half timbering on the stair tower rising from the house’s front or west-facing façade and on a dormer rising from the house’s back or south-facing roof. This half-timbering together with the house’s flared rooflines, leaded glass windows, and parklike setting grant Ross Hame a storybook English cottage feel.""Ross Hame’s exterior features roughcast stucco interposed in places by false half-timbering on the Tudor Revival-style house. The house’s interior maintains its original asymmetrical cross-wing floorplan which was designed to take full advantage of the house’s location on a rise above Spring Creek which flows through Ross Hame’s grounds. These grounds include many circa 1922 landscape elements including waterfalls, benches, bridges, lawns, and a tennis court, which is considered a contributing structure. The grounds also feature a contributing caretaker’s cottage which is located directly behind, or east of the main house. The two-story cottage, originally built to serve as a stable and carriage house, features a roughcast plaster exterior and a double pile interior. While the exterior of the cottage remains largely unchanged since its construction in 1922, the interior was divided in half at some point in the 1930s or early 1940s. The northwest side of the cottage was remodeled to be a large garage and storage area while its southeast end was transformed into a residence complete with a living/dining room and adjoining kitchen on the first floor, and two bedrooms and a bathroom on the second floor. The cottage is in good repair, retains its historic integrity, and is a contributing property feature. Behind, or east of this cottage stands a large, three-bay, lean-to garage with wooden plank sides and a corrugated metal roof. The garage dates to the late 1940s or early 1950s and is non-contributing as it was constructed outside the designated period of significance."
