The Old Red House on Redwood Road
May. 8th, 2007 11:57 pmOnce again, I call upon the Powers of LiveJournal! Rise to me, O LJ Minions!
Once upon a time I was fascinated with an old Victorian mansion/farmhouse sort of close to where we lived in Utah. I've tried finding pictures or even information about it online but it might as well not exist. Will anyone else have more luck than me?
Here is what I know, should it be of any use whatsoever:
- It was on Redwood Road, somewhere near the I-215 onramp (so ... 45th-62nd South or thereabouts? This might run into the Taylorsville/Bennion Zone of Ambiguity.)
- It looked (to my miniscule knowledge of architecture) late Victorian
- Made of brick, with two bay windows and a turret, door centre front
- Hosted the 'Alien Encounters' haunted house for a few years
- An acquaintance of mine once said it was called the 'Diamond house' (wisdom of teenagers to be taken with a grain of salt)
- Was demolished in 1997 (I believe) to make way for the ironically named 'Heritage Estates' office park
Well, I can't offer any concrete prize to whoever may find it but I might work on something...
