Holladay Real Estate History

On July 29, 1847 a group of pioneers known as the Mississippi Company, led by John Holladay, entered the Salt Lake Valley. Within weeks after their arrival, they discovered a free flowing, spring fed stream, which they called Spring Creek. While most of the group returned to the Fort in Salt Lake City for the winter, two or three men built dugouts along the stream and spent the winter there. Thus, this area became the first village established away from Salt Lake city. In the spring, lots of families came out to build homes and tame the land. Springs, ponds, grasses and wildflowers were abundant, making this an ideal place to settle.

Favorable conditions for agriculture, orchards and businesses allowed for continued growth over the years. The Holladay and Cottonwood communities were unincorporated areas of Salt Lake County, but on May 4, 1999 the community voted and the City of Holladay was officially incorporated on November 30, 1999.
