The Clarkston Tithing Granary, at 10212 N. 8700 West in Clarkston, Utah was built in 1905 to house in kind tithing donations by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]

The building was moved a few blocks in 2018 from its original location on E 100 S (41°55′05.5″N 112°02′50″W / 41.918194°N 112.04722°W / 41.918194; -112.04722 (original location), behind house at northeast corner of E 100 S and S 100 E) to new location at 88 W. Center St. (41°55′11.75″N 112°03′11″W / 41.9199306°N 112.05306°W / 41.9199306; -112.05306 (new location in 2018), southeast corner of W. Center St. and S 100 W).[note 1]

The building was moved on September 8, 2018.[2]

It is a one-story frame building with a gable roof, and with a shed roof porch.[3]

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ Its NRHP listing address was 10212 N. 8700 West on a county-level street-naming system; local streets have since been renamed to radiate out from Center and Main St. in Clarkston, and that street is now E 100 S. The new location at 88 W. Center is at the intersection of Center St. and S 100 W (formerly S 8900 W). As of October 2019, Google satellite view of original location shows a bare spot while Google streetview dated July 2013 shows the granary still there, mostly behind some shrubberies; Bing aerial view also shows the granary still there. In October 2019, Google satellite shows the granary at its new location, while July 2013-dated Google Streetview and Bing aerial view shows that as a lot with trees but vacant of any building. Both locations can be seen in linked "Map of all coordinates" at the right.
