That Doesn't Happen Every Day
Tales from The Avenues - Salt Lake City
Salt Lake City's Avenues District is the oldest neighborhood in one of the oldest cities in The Mountain West. From polygamists, to golf promotors, a house that was used as the set of a horror movie, to a rumored rental of Ted Bundy, this old neighborhood played host to some of the strangest and most quirky stories in SLC. On this episode we hear Cevan LeSieur, author of two books about the avenues, tell us some of the more interesting stories from this small neighborhood with a big history.
