This lookout in Salt Lake City was on the top of the 15-story Walker Bank Building. There was no enclosure, just a three-legged map/alidade table. The lookout was first established in 1939 by the Wasatch National Forest and the Salt Lake City water department, and used until about 1948. Its purpose was the protection of the surrounding city watershed and the detection of fires before they could attack the city itself. The lookout was usually staffed from late morning until dark. In those days the Bank building was the tallest in the City.
