The long building in the distance, the one with all the gables, is Brigham Young’s Lion House, with the Beehive House just beyond it. This view from the 1860s is an unfamiliar one, because the present Church Administration Building is only a few feet from the Lion House, making it hard to see the gables straight on.

Great image! I love the horse (maybe a mule, those are long ears!) and the people caught in the street. I am assuming this was shot from the roof of the Council House. Any idea who the photographer was?
No idea, blueagleranch, who the photographer was. Maybe there’s some clue on the back, but I don’t have that. (This, and some other stereoviews I have or will post, are in the New York Public Library collection.)
Those trees along South Temple seem to be growing quite well. They must have been some of the earliest, to be so large so early, don’t you think?
