In Federal Heights
Most of the bungalows and English Tudor cottages in Federal Heights are in the original Federal Heights subdivision, while most of the Colonial Revival and Neo-Classical residences are in the Bonneville-on-the-Hill development above it. (National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: Edward & Harriett Rosenbaum House (Utah SHPO)) The Federal Heights land was annexed to Salt Lake City in October 1907, and by 1909 its developer was surveying, platting, grading and improving the subdivision's streets and building lots. (National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: Edward & Harriett Rosenbaum House (Utah SHPO)) Federal Heights borders two protected open spaces, the Red Butte Canyon Research Natural Area and the Tomahawk Natural Area, and has access to numerous hiking trails on the foothills. (Federal Heights Neighborhood | Council District 3 (SLC.gov)) In the Bonneville-on-the-Hill section of Federal Heights, lot sizes were increased and parcels sold ad hoc, and wealthy families built increasingly grander mansions there from the 1920s into the 1970s. (National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: Edward & Harriett Rosenbaum House (Utah SHPO)) About 30,000 typical brick homes built in Salt Lake City before 1970 are considered unreinforced masonry houses, which emergency management experts call an enormous safety risk in a major earthquake.

How it works
- Walk the rooms and prioritize the glass guests will see first
- Dry-wipe loose dirt, wash with mild solution, squeegee or lint-free cloth dry, working out of direct sun where possible
