Marmalade District

Marlmalade District Facts and Information

Salt Lake City’s Marmalade Hill Historic District is distinguished from other Salt Lake City neighborhoods by is steep, narrow and angular streets, mature landscaping, and a variety of vintage residential buildings. The Marmalade District houses prime real estate and is a small, rectangular area where the streets are named to reflect fruit-bearing trees that were important or planted by early Marmalade District residents.

A single block of the Marmalade District reflects as many architectural styles as can be viewed in the entire Avenues area. Some of these Marmalade houses, because of certain types of architecture, are considered to be examples of Utah’s best.

The Marmalade neighborhood is an example and well-preserved monument that recognizes the skills, resourcefulness and taste of its early pioneer builders and inhabitants. There are many examples of excellent architecture and some include the following:

  • The John Platts House at 364 Quince Street
  • The carpenter, gothic-style Thomas Quayle House at 355 Quince Street
  • The vernacular Queen Anne-style Reverend John D. Nutting House at 161 West 400 North
  • The formal Italianate-style Morrow-Taylor House at 390 Quince Street
