This book presents a set of buildings--27 dormitories, two school buildings, one gymnasium, one chapel, and one maintenance building--the parcel of land they stood on, the people that inhabited them, the temporal space they occupied, the agendas they housed, and the forces that shaped and reshaped them. The buildings established on the southern edge of the small Utah town of Brigham City, were built as a military hospital by the United States Department of War, repurposed as an off-reservation boarding school by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and reimagined as a New Urbanist townhome community by a New York-based developer. The photographs visually track the material traces of the boarding school era, what was emerging from the years the property lay fallow, what was to become as the buildings began their transition to a colorful townhome community, and what would emerge after the buildings were demolished.
