The Ben Meek Home was built in 1899 by Anton J. Nielsen. At the time of World War II, the home was turned into 4 apartments. It is a 2 and a half-story building. A granite foundation supports walls that are 3 bricks thick and go all the way to the attic. Built before electricity, it had gas lights. Wallpaper and painted walls and ceilings are original plaster.
Ben Meek was sheep man and this was his “Commodus home in Draper.”
The home was restored by Clinton L. & Carma Cutler in 1980~1981.
