Brigham Young, founder of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (the followers of which are known as Mormons) built the so-called "Beehive House" in 1854 to house himself and several of his wives (Young practiced polygamy). The Beehive House is visible in the photograph at the far right, with a widow's walk featured on its roofline. Designed by Salt Lake Temple architect Truman O. Angell, the Beehive House has since been used as a residence for several dignitaries of the Mormon Church, as well as a boarding home for young Mormon women. The house was restored in the late 1950s and now operates as a museum. See also 96-07-08-alb11-301.
