I wouldn't say it's stalled too terribly. But ours hasn't even started.

The thing is, beyond the LDS Church, is there any developer willing to build a residential tower? I'm not so sure. I maintain that is the quickest way to expand the Salt Lake skyline because, for most cities, those developments are more common than a commercial tower.

Our skyline has expanded - but it could be so much more if we went vertical with our residential living. So far, we're not really doing that beyond what the LDS Church is ready to invest in our community. But even they are limited in their stretch and it would be nice for an independent developer to come in and bring true urban living to the city.
