The original Warehouse District was listed on the National Register in 1982 and included 16 buildings with a somewhat undefined period of significance from approximately 1890 to 1927. The original district boundary encompasses a roughly 1-block area straddling 200 South between 300 West and 400 West in Salt Lake City. Of the 16 buildings in the original district, 15 were determined to be contributing resources, and one was listed as a non-contributing resource. As noted previously, the additional information presented in this boundary increase nomination documents that the previously identified non-contributing resource (358 West 200 South) has been demolished, and that two of the previously listed contributing resources-357 West 200 South and 380 West 200 South-are now considered non-contributing resources due to significant physical alteration subsequent to the listing of the original district. The areas of significance for the existing/original district are not well-defined in the MRA record that served as the basis for the original Warehouse District listing, nor does the MRA establish any defined contexts for the district. The MRA, which described several potential small districts, notes the areas of significance for the MRA itself as architecture, commerce, industry, politics/government, religion, transportation, and "other" without specifically identifying the relevant themes for the Warehouse District. However, the MRA describes the original Warehouse District as being significant as "a well-preserved cluster of warehouse buildings that convey a sense of the impact of the coming of the railroad in Salt Lake City."5 This statement 5 McCormick, John S. and Diana Johnson. 1982.
