OMB No. 1024-0018, NFS Form United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Section No. 7 Page 5 Granite LDS Ward Chapel/Avard Fairbanks Studio, Sandy, Salt Lake County, UT Narrative Description The Granite LDS Ward Chapel/Avard Fairbanks Studio is a one-and-a-half-story brick and stone church building, completed in 1905 as a meetinghouse for the Church of Jesus Christ of Ladder Day Saints members in the community of Granite, located at the foot of Little Cottonwood Canyon in Sandy, Utah. The style is Victorian Romanesque Revival; revival designs were commonly used for ecclesiastical buildings in Utah during the early-1900s. The red brick was painted white around 1950, and repainted in 2005. The floor plan is simple; it is rectangular in form (70 feet by 32 feet) and has a main entrance that features a centrally engaged square two-story tower, and features a one-and-a-half-story rear office addition (circa 1938, 31 feet by 24 feet). The imposing building, sitting on a hillside site overlooking the Salt Lake Valley, is currently used as a repository for works of the famous sculptor Avard Fairbanks. Relatively few alterations have been made to the building and none that affects its historic integrity.
