SLC’s proximity to all things “outdoors” is just one of the many reasons we’re smitten with our city. With that in mind, we’ve no doubt that the location of this Avenues perch played a serious part in sealing the deal when a COLLECTIVE pal of ours scooped it up a few years back. We recently stopped by to catch up and take in some of those sunsets we’ve been hearing about…

Perched on the top floor and catching killer views of the Wasatch Mountains and Downtown, the perks of this place are crystal clear.

And the kitchen is the perfect place to take them in: open, inviting, and indicative of lovely, loft-style living, we gathered here before heading upstairs. See, just one floor up is this building’s community rooftop deck, available to just 15 units. From here we sipped Sundowners, chatted, and counted turrets on the Governor’s mansion.

City life looks pretty good from here...
