American dream of homeownership on hold for most young Utahns
Ask anyone under 35 in American Fork or Lehi about buying a first home, and the answer tends to be some version of the same thing: not yet, and maybe never. The dream hasn’t changed. The math has. The Provo-Orem-Lehi metro area had a median household income of $101,014...

Proposed condo tower near Trolley Square would require change to Salt Lake City zoning.
There’s no question that Salt Lake needs more housing. The issue is how, where and when. The latest is a 15-story midrise building across from Trolley Square. And when they say “midrise,” they mean something smaller than the Empire State Building. The building would house condos, which apparently has created great glee from the City Council. The problem is what exactly that means. One housing advocate, Cindy Cromer, was disgusted, partly because the city would have to change both zoning and the master plan. “There’s no sense to work on a master plan if the language is just completely ignored,” she said. An Instagram comment noted the “increasingly frequent habit of developers asking for zoning exemptions and master plan changes for individual owners and specific ... parcel zoning.” And while the Council seems thrilled with the tower’s ownership component, for-sale units often go to buyers who then rent them out to other tenants. “The city is naïve,” Cromer said, adding that, in her opinion, there’s no predictability, no protection for view corridors and no assurance of affordability.

Tower Plan Aims To Rewrite Trolley Square Skyline With 97 New Condos
Salt Lake City’s rental-heavy East Central neighborhood could be in for a shakeup, with developers pitching a 15-story condo tower a block from Trolley Square that would add 97 for-sale units to the area. In a building boom dominated by rentals, the project would be one of the few for-sale condominium towers in the city and, if approved, would set a new height precedent east of 700 East. The timing is no coincidence, landing just as the city updates its Central Community master plan, a process that could help determine whether the tower actually gets built.
