Additional Details:
Located on a hill overlooking beautiful Salt Lake Valley, the imposing Utah State Capitol was completed in 1915, at a cost exceeding $2,700,000.00. On the right may be seen the "Mormon" Battalion Monument, a rose-pink granite triangle centered by a heroic bronze figure of a Battalion infantryman, erected in 1927 to perpetuate the memory of "Mormons" who fought for the United States in the Mexican war of 1846.
