Architect
An architect is a person who plans, designs and oversees the construction of buildings. To practice architecture means to provide services in connection with the design of buildings and the space within the site surrounding the buildings that have human occupancy or use as their principal purpose.

On Sunday, May 15, 1910 the building was dedicated by Joseph F. Smith, then president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The tabernacle was built with wh ...

Territorial Insane Asylum
The Utah State Hospital (USH) is a mental hospital located in eastern Provo, Utah, United States of America. The current superintendent is Dallas Earnshaw. History The Utah State Hospital began as the Territorial Insane Asylum in 1885 at Provo, Utah, with the purpose of housing and treating those considered to be mentally ill and attempting to return them to normal levels of functioning. However, due to limited knowledge about treatment of mental health at the time, the hospital became little more than a place for the mentally ill to live. The site chosen in Provo was eight blocks from the nearest residence and was separated from the city by swampland and the city dump. The supervising architect of the 1885-completed building was John H. Burton, who planned the building during the period from 1881 until his death, after which his assistant/colleague Richard K.A. Kletting was appointed. In 1903 the Asylum was renamed the Utah State Mental Hospital, and in 1927 it adopted its ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
