National Register of Historic Places - Isaac C. and Dorothy S. Clark House
Statement of Significant: The Isaac C. and Dorothy S. Clark House, built in 1916, is a two-story foursquare-type house with bungalow/craftsman details. The house is significant under Criterion A for its association with the early development of the Federal Heights subdivision. In the decade between 1907 and 1917, the developers of the subdivision were actively engaged in improving and marketing lots in what became one of Salt Lake City's most successful early twentieth-century residential neighborhoods. The Clark House was one of several early homes featured in local newspapers to promote the subdivision. The owners of the Clark House during the historic period represent a mix of prominent families that reflects the Federal Heights neighborhood as a whole. Because of its proximity to the University of Utah, the house was used as a fraternity house during the 1960s and 1970s. The Clark House is also significant under Criterion C as an excellent example of a foursquare-type house with Craftsman interior detailing. In the 1980s the house was returned to use as a single-family dwelling (with basement apartment). The current owners began an extensive interior restoration of the home to return it to the original bungalow/craftsman appearance. Despite several interior remodeling, the house is having retained its exterior historic integrity and is in excellent condition. The Isaac C. and Dorothy S. Clark House is a contributing historic resource in Salt Lake City's Federal Heights neighborhood.
