LAKEWOOD HISTORIC DISTRICT IN HOLLADAY RECEIVES OFFICIAL DESIGNATION By Peri Kinder | peri.k@thecityjournals.com
T
he City of Holladay has a new historic designation: The Parade of Homes Lakewood Site Historic District, located at East Lone Peak Drive and South Fairoaks Drive. Homeowners in the district spent several years gathering the information necessary to send to the Utah State Historical Society and the National Parks Service for approval. Diana Johnson, who lives at 1635 E. Lone Peak Drive, addressed the city council in August to celebrate the historic recognition. “We have been working for the last three years to recognize the uniqueness of the homes in our neighborhood and the neighborhood itself,” she said. “The Lakewood District retains the highest degree of historic integrity with 11 of the original 17 homes unchanged and exhibiting the characteristics and defining features that are representative of post-World War II subdivision and design.” Johnson became concerned about protecting the district when one of the original Parade of Homes houses was sold and scheduled for demolition. She and other homeowners got together with the hope of preserving the remaining homes that represent architectural types and styles of the 1950s. Continued page 4
