Salt Lake Tribune: Wharton: Whatever Became of the Heidelberg Restaurant?

The most historical building in a town filled with historical buildings

Interesting story in yesterday's Salt Lake Tribune, putting the focus on a Utah historical landmark which Weber County Forum readers who are a little bit longer in the tooth will remember as having been at one time one of the most notable fine dining establishments in the whole Beehive State.  Check out the story, which is a pretty informative read:

The Rock Mill - Farmington, UT

Readers who'd like to learn a little more about this important and unique Utah landmark property owe it to themselves to visit the website:

Incidentally folks, the current owner, Tom Owens, also happens to be, or used to be, a, long-time (legacy) WCF reader.

Owens is right, wethinks: It is "pretty shameful that society doesn’t protect heritage buildings."

WCF Hat Tip to Tom Owens, by the way, who cared enough to save it from the wrecking ball with his own dough, thus far at least, despite our general society's notable cultural preservation failings.

So what say our gentle readers about all this?
