The future of a huge Salt Lake City development hinges on how to honor Japantown and get $15M for a big parking garage

Assuming it goes ahead, the development in Salt Lake City known as Block 67 will be big by any definition.

But heading into 2019, two vital questions remain unanswered: Will Salt Lake City seal a complicated deal to give the developer $15 million to help build a huge underground parking garage? And what will happen to Japantown?

Developers at The Ritchie Group, based in Salt Lake City, are pushing plans for a cluster of four towers as part of a major mixed-use and hotel development on the block bounded by 100 South and 200 South from 200 West to 300 West, part of which is known now as Royal Wood Plaza.
