The Ballpark at America First Square is a baseball park under construction in South Jordan, Utah, United States, which is scheduled to open in spring 2025. It will be the home of the Triple-A Salt Lake Bees of the Pacific Coast League. The ballpark will replace the Bees' former home, Smith's Ballpark, where the team has played since its founding in 1994. In May 2023, Miller Sports + Entertainment (MSE) released renderings of The Ballpark at America First Square. The stadium was designed by HOK and it is being built by Okland Construction. The Ballpark is designed to meet the requirements of Major League Baseball teams. Its design includes a 12,000-sq.-ft. clubhouse, training and player development areas, and multiple batting cages. The stadium is a privately funded venture by Miller Sports + Entertainment, owners of the Bees. It is part of a larger mixed-use entertainment district within the master-planned Daybreak Community, which is expected to take more than 15 years to complete. By October 17, 2024, the playing grass was fully installed. The right and left field walls are 345 ft (105 m) feet away from the home plate as measured along the foul line. The distance from home plate to the center field wall is 420 ft (130 m) feet. The Utah Transit Authority has announced a new station on the TRAX Red Line to serve the stadium. The City of Jordan, the Utah Department of Transportation, and the Larry H. Miller Company to reduce the impact of the stadium on local traffic.

Trails are planned to encourage access via foot and bicycle. The field is oriented east to provide a view of the Wasatch Mountains.

West Ridge Academy

West Ridge Academy (known as the Utah Boys Ranch until 2005), is a youth residential treatment center based in West Jordan, Utah, USA. It seeks to provide clinical services, education, and other programs for teens, both girls and boys, that are identified as at risk. Until 2005, the Utah Boys Ranch was male-only. In early 2005, it opened new, separate facilities for girls and changed its name to West Ridge Academy. It is a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation under the name Children and Youth Services, Inc. The academy states that it provides "quality clinical services, education, and experiences which promote spiritual awareness, personal accountability and change of heart." The facility has received criticism for past abusive practices toward residents, including facing lawsuits in 2008, 2010, and 2012 by former students. In 2016, the application to transition West Ridge Academy into a charter school, named Eagle Summit Academy, was approved by the Utah Board of Education after including caveats to keep public and private funding separate in the school's budgets and to ensure the safety of the new charter school's students.West Ridge also provides a day program called Sunshine Solutions for underprivileged local kids, age five and up which provides "summer activities, positive mentors and emotional growth to help them learn how to make good decisions". The school is Christian but non-denominational, with the majority of students belonging to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church).
