Tech companies seem to be one segment of the economy that does not particularly enjoy having their headquarters located in a downtown area. I'm not exactly sure why but I don't think it is purely the cost of construction or land. These companies are literally worth billions. It also certainly isn't a purely Utah problem. If we look at Microsoft, Ebay, Google or Apple. They are all located in suburban locales. Even IBM which is located in Armonk, NY which is a village of 3,461.

I think that this would make an interesting study as to why these companies have not desired a truly urban headquarters.
