Show OMB No. 1024-0018 . NPS Form United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Section No. Z Page ~ Utah Ore Sampling Company Mill, Murray, Salt Lake County, UT south pitch). It also has a tower-like mass in on its roof at the highest and southeast corner which appears to be massed less than 113 the Mill's plan area. It has the same materials and a small west-facing gable. At its westmost elevation on the first floor (possibly with volumes extending to the second story) a rail line runs through a large garage-like pass through for rail cars and this extends from the building's plan to the north and south. "In order to better and faster work a new unit know as Unit C was added in August 1925 ... on November 13, 1929, placed in service 'Unit D', which is situated beside 'Unit C2' ... ,, 2 Mill D : This later Mill building was built as further technology required more height to crush the sampled ores. It is constructed of reinforced concrete, brick and "core iron." Its structural system has concrete pillars and a rectangular bay system. Its west elevation, broken by Mill C, has three long bays to the north and two short bays to the south. Its east elevation has four 2-story long bays and two 3-story short bays. On its north and south elevations it has two, unequal, 3-story long bays. This uneven bay width of the south elevation is assumed to have been spatially driven by the new equipment placed in the building; but it is only an assumption. Wash House: Built in 1913, the change house is approximately 658 square feet. The inside plan contains four shows and three lavatories above a full basement 3 Its square foot print has a concrete foundation. Its walls are large concrete blocks and at its cornice is a painted, horizontal band which runs around the building and through the gables at the north and south ends. The large concrete blocks extend all the way to the roof through the gables. There is a square chimney extending from the roof in the center of its west elevation. The symmetrical west elevation shows two rectangular windows, the tops of which meet the painted band of wall just beneath the cormce. The Change House's north elevation is interrupted by a concrete block, one-room addition, which is recorded (for tax purposes) as the Oil Storage and Coal Shed. This addition was built in 1924 and is 50 square feet with a concrete foundation and a shed roof. Its main entrance is on the west elevation. The door has a six-light window in the upper portion with a horizontal three-panel configuration below. On the north elevation is a ninelight steel window. Its west facing window appears to be double-hung with 6 lights in the top hung pane. Just to the north and in front of the building are tow gas pumps, one having the "Sinclair" logo on it. One photo shows that to the south use to exist a one-story, vertically wood planked storage house. Shop: The shop was built in 1924. This is the large, one-story building with two projecting roof masses with windows and north-south gables. It has a concrete foundation and a gable roof above walls covered with corrugated metal. The walls seem to have had openings that were later covered by corrugated metal of another color. There is a small brick chimney on the west roof and just north of center on its west elevation as well as other ventilation devices. In 1958 there were 300 pound warehouse scales inside. The main entrance door was on the north elevation, openings are now boarded up, and there is also a "concrete stoop" in front of the door. 2 3 History of Murray City, p. 206 , interview with Mr. Evans (date unknown) . 1958 tax card. |
