About The Avenues in Salt Lake City
The Avenues climbs the hill northeast of downtown Salt Lake City, Utah, across City Creek Canyon from Capitol Hill. The numbered avenues run east and west, starting at 1st Avenue just above South Temple, and the cross streets are lettered. It is one of the oldest neighborhoods in the city.

137 homes in The Avenues are on the market today, priced from $195,000 to $6,550,000. The middle asking price is $639,900. Townhome listings (1 right now) run about 1,400 square feet and start at $549,000. Condo listings (75 right now) run about 400 to 2,500 square feet and start at $195,000.

Most homes here are older houses on small lots, many more than a hundred years old, alongside condos and a few newer builds higher on the hill. With an older home, look closely at the foundation, wiring, plumbing and roof, and budget for an inspection by someone who knows old houses.
The historic district
The lower Avenues, roughly from 1st to 9th Avenue between State Street and Virginia Street, is Salt Lake City's largest local historic district. It covers about 100 blocks and more than 2,000 buildings, and it has been protected since 1978. Inside the district, changes to the outside of a home usually need city review, so ask before you plan an addition, new windows or a teardown.
Living in The Avenues
The neighborhood is walkable to downtown, and trails into City Creek Canyon and the foothills start at its edge. Streets are steep in places, and many older homes have little or no garage, so check parking.
HOA fees
Listings now show HOA fees of about $77 to $1,255 a month. Most houses in The Avenues have no HOA. The fees on this page come from the condo buildings. Check each listing.
