New City, Old Soul
Formally incorporated in 2016, Millcreek, Utah is Salt Lake County’s newest official city. But don’t let that fool you! Millcreek has been an important part of modern Utah history since 1848! Fertile farms that kept Utahns fed and lumber mills that kept them sheltered once called this city home. While the end of World War II brought people that brought change. Eventually developing into a community that had an identity all their own. Incorporating in 2016 has allowed this community to take more control of its identity and fearlessly push towards the future. Creating a sense of eager anticipation for what the city they love could become.
Millcreek Common
Few things capture that vision better than Millcreek’s new town hall and city center, Millcreek Common. With a dedicated Food Truck space, a skate loop that becomes an ice skating rink in the winter, and nearby shopping, civic leaders have made an intentional effort to give residents a space for the people of their city and surrounding cities.
