The Intercept Station (Benchmark) is the junction of the top of the spire and the bottom of the cone on which Columbia stands.

Technically, this Intercept does not exist since the Station Description places the Building at 24th and Grant (which doesn't even exist in Salt Lake City). The building actually sits at the intersection of 400 South and State Street.
