Really glad to see the many projects happening on Lehi's Old Main. I see where Pleasant Grove is completing some cool construction on its historic Main also. Now if only American Fork will finally get its act together. There's so much that could be done on that historic section of Main/State St. that runs through the heart of American Fork.
It does seem like a lot of the historic town centers in the greater Wasatch Front are building up there walkable town centers. Places like Midvale, Lehi, Pleasant Grove, Sugar House and others continue to add projects each year. Of course, it can never happen fast enough, but still the progress is encouraging.
Yeah it's cool to see the historic cores grow. American Fork has so much potential! Payson has my favorite Utah County downtown, they have recently redone main street and added some new mix use infill projects.
In celebration of their 100th anniversary, Clyde Companies chose to return their headquarters to Springville, Utah, where their company was founded in 1926. The 8-acre site is currently used as a service and maintenance yard for large-scale equipment and is located adjacent to the watershed of Utah Lake. The brownfield site is being revitalized as an engineered landscape, with a focus on enhancing water quality and promoting ecological diversity. The yard occupies the southwest corner of a primary intersection that serves as a gateway to the town of Springville, making the new Headquarters project an iconic threshold welcoming visitors to the community.
Springville: I was visiting some family down in Springville the other day I noticed Allen’s and Burger King(they’ve been closed for a while I know lol) on 4th and Main Street but they were in the process of tearing them down. Anyone know what’s going on its place?
Oh, wow. I used to live next door to that site. I always dreamed of it developing as a walkable retail. But office is fine, I guess.
I appreciate that the building faces State Street, rather than having the parking lot front the street.
Great to see that stretch between Provo and Springville developing on both sides of State St. It used to be so bleak and under used. I remember even agriculture seemed to avoid the area. I think this next decade is really going to see a lot of infill in the southern portion of Utah Valley.

4th & Main, northwest corner: Clyde Companies entity Springville Rising has closed on its purchase of the property formerly known as “The Allen’s Block.” The parcel will now be called “4th & Main.”
Asbestos mitigation will begin shortly, so the existing building can be demolished and the site cleared.
Temporary protective fencing will be placed during project preparation and planning phases to deter criminal activity, illegally parked vehicles, etc.
We want community input as we determine the best use of the parcel. If you have suggestions, please share them HERE.
We are looking for responsible, viable, long-term solutions that honor Springville’s history and culture, build community, and enhance the value of this land for Springville’s downtown and local economy.

BYU resources, such as enrollment services are moving to different campus locations as Provo City planning records confirm plans to tear down the Abraham O. Smoot Administration Building and replace it with a new structure.
The planning application, project number PLPPA20250289, states that it was submitted by BYU on May 30...
...Upon approval, the ASB will be razed. It is anticipated this decision will happen sometime this fall, but employees have already started to move out of the building this summer.
Departments currently housed in the ASB will reside in temporary spaces on campus, with the majority of personnel to be housed at BYU East, the former Wasatch Elementary School building.
The Office of the President and most members of the President’s Council are moving into the Hinckley Center. BYU is coordinating closely with select Provo City departments on required application and permitting processes."
