From 1953- mansion located at 12th East and South Temple
The same mansion in August 2009.My grade school pal Gary Mertlich lived there for a few years. It was only two houses away from Wasatch Elementary School. In fact, he could hear the first bell from his kitchen and still walk to school before the second bell rang.
It was a cool house with a dumbwaiter and an "intercom" of tubes leading to various rooms, with the kitchen having the most horns of all.
There was a huge play room covering most of the basement area.
When Gary's family lived there it was painted white. They then moved up into a more modest home in the lower avenues.
Gary now teaches social work in Colorado.
As you can see, it is still a beautiful home.
