There are multiple reasons for this: a well-educated work- force, economic diversity, fiscally responsible state and local governments, and substantial year-in, year-out production from the agriculture, natural resources, high-tech, and tourism sectors. Utahns are rightfully proud of their state’s economy . They are also proud of the depth and breadth of the heritage resources found through- out the state’s 29 counties . Temple Square in Salt Lake City, the vibrant business district on 25th Street in Ogden, the Stagecoach Inn at Camp Floyd, and the Jens Nielson House in Bluff may not seem to have much in common. Some are owned by an institution, some by the private sector, and some by government . Some are grand in scale; some are modest . But they have one thing in common – each is a physical representation of the history of Utah . But “economy” and “historic preservation” do not often appear in the same sentence.
