Diverse, growing and changing city
South Salt Lake is home to a growing and diverse community with an eclectic dining and shopping scene and a changing cityscape. Located almost directly 3 miles south of the capital city’s downtown, South Salt Lake is a combination of industrial and commercial businesses to the west and a mix of residential and commercial districts to the east. Despite its ties to industry, the city has made efforts to embrace change, as seen through its adopted tagline “City on the Move.” Some of those changes have included the building of a downtown and streetcar neighborhood and growth in local businesses. “In addition to being another great family [community], South Salt Lake is home to several award-winning breweries and distilleries, including Shades Brewing, Level Crossing and Grid City Beer Works,” says Ryan Mack, director of media and communications for the Visit Salt Lake group. Adding to the local scene are places like the Chinatown Market with its dozen restaurants and giant specialty Asian foods supermarket on a nearly 6-acre property.
The Urban Flea Market is held on the second Sunday of each month.
