CITY CREEK CENTER SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH
PROJECT
LEED
The two-block site of City Creek Center comprises 20 acres located just south of Temple Square in downtown Salt Lake City. It was formerly the location of two 1980’s retail malls, which were demolished, along with a low-rise hotel and a 20-story office building. ZGF’s urban master plan for the site proposed breaking down the former retail mall concept and creating a pedestrian-oriented, mixeduse center with outdoor entertainment space, greatly increased natural light and strong connections through the site to the rest of the city. The project revitalizes the downtown area and creates a sustainablydesigned center for a world class city. The new retail, housing and office development, accented by landscaped plazas and multiple water features, interweaves new and existing buildings and features new streetscape around the perimeter of the two blocks.
• All completed ZGF buildings have achieved LEED Gold certification. • City Creek is a USGBC Pilot Project in the new LEED for Neighborhood Development program, with a goal of Silver certification.

stylistic differences in the buildings are reflected in the layouts of the units—housing in the more traditional buildings have conventionally arranged spaces, while the more modern buildings offer unit layouts with distinctive open plans. As a participant in the new LEED for Neighborhood Development rating system, City Creek integrates the principles of smart growth, urbanism and green building into its design and construction. All of the completed buildings have achieved LEED-Gold certification. The retail component of City Creek includes a 1,225 foot-long replica of its namesake, City Creek, complete with cascading waterfalls and live fish. An active water fountain in the center of the retail features the world’s most intricate retractable roof to-date.

The reception area is supported by a catering kitchen and sized to transition to a large gathering space. A generous employee lounge, with commanding views, features an area for informal interaction with flexibility to accommodate employee celebrations.

The palette of materials consists of marble, limestone, walnut wood paneling and back-lit onyx, defining the space as elegant, timeless and sophisticated. The office environment is enhanced by abundant natural light provided by clerestory glass at the enclosed offices and windows at the ends of corridors, further maximizing views beyond.
