St. Mark's Episcopal Cathedral is the oldest non-Mormon cathedral in Utah and probably the oldest religious structure in continuous use in Salt Lake City. It was designed by famed architect, Richard Upjohn, architect of the Trinity Church, New York City, and founder and first president of the American Institute of Architects. It is said to be the last church designed by Mr, Upjohn and is a good example of his Gothic Revival style. Its location in Utah is significant.
