The Sandy Co-op Block, located at 8750 South Center St. (150 East), in Sandy, Utah, was built in 1889 and was originally a ZCMI shop. [2] Known later as Sandy Museum, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992. [1]
Its 1992 NRHP nomination asserted it is important "as a distinct and important type of commercial structure which was common in Sandy City in the latter half of the nineteenth century. This structure is the only remaining two-story commercial block from Sandy's original commercial district." It is associated with the mining, smelting, and small farm era of Sandy. Sandy had been connected by railroad in 1871. [3]
