City Creek Center
Location Salt Lake City, Utah Client Zimmer Gunsul Frasca, PRI - Property Reserve, Inc. SWA Scope Urban design Landscape architecture services Size 25 acres Architect Zimmer Gunsul Frasca Architects, LLP Callison Architecture, Inc. Green/LEED-Rated Design Elements The project is registered for LEED certification
The project, in downtown Salt Lake City directly across from the Mormon Temple, consists of five residential towers, six office towers and a large retail component. The landscape concept takes its inspiration from the City Creek which originally traversed the site. Water bubbles up, as if from a spring and meanders its way until it falls in a grand cascade down to the retail level below. Other elements of the landscape design support the overall concept of urban living, with pocket parks, roof gardens, and landscape connections throughout the two blocks. Complementing the new architecture, the landscape helps to strengthen the feeling of a new exciting urban district that surrounds City Creek.
