The magazine offers in-depth coverage of industry trends, notable projects, and profiles of key figures, making it a vital resource for architects, engineers, general contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, public and private owners, and real estate developers in the state.

Their latest Most Outstanding Projects issues, released on January 1, 2025, named Asher Adams the most outstanding Adaptive Reuse project across the state of Utah.

Asher Adams Hotel pays homage to the rich past, present, and future of the city. The irreplaceable nature of this generational property earned it a designation from the Historic Landmark Commission, both for its cultural significance and awe-inspiring appearance. Today, this iconic location ties the faraway with a sense of home, bridging the old and new and linking the feeling of familiarity with curiosity for fresh discoveries. Once you arrive, the rest is history.

The hotel offers 225 guestrooms, including 13 specialty rooms and suites located within the historic train station. Accommodations are designed with modern luxury in mind, featuring 65-inch TVs and large windows that provide ample natural light. Select west-facing rooms also offer balconies with views of the city and the Wasatch mountains.

Dining at Asher Adams includes four distinct venues, each paying homage to the golden age of train travel:

Rouser: A provincial American three-course dining experience highlighting charcoal-fired flavors.
The Bar at Asher Adams: Located in the opulent Grand Hall, offering nostalgic dining and drinks.
No. 119: A swank, whiskey-forward cocktail bar overlooking the Grand Hall.
Counterpart: An in-house market featuring small-batch coffee, local pastries, and grab-and-go bites.

Situated within The Gateway district, Asher Adams provides easy access to local attractions. It’s steps away from the TRAX Light Rail and the Delta Center, and offers quick connections to Temple Square and the Salt Lake City International Airport.
