The Eagle Gate was built in 1859 to mark the entrance to Brigham Young's farmland as well as City Creek Canyon, the monument has been altered four times — as State Street became a public thoroughfare and later was widened, first to accommodate electric street cars and then to handle the growing automobile traffic in downtown Salt Lake. This is a very beautiful piece of Utah history. We hope you will visit it and enjoy you it in beautiful downtown Salt Lake City Utah.
