The Salt Lake City Council Hall in Salt Lake City , built 1864-1866, was from January 1866 to 1894 the seat of the City Council and the Legislature of Utah Territory . The architect of the building, built from 1864 on, was William Harrison Folsom. It was a frequent site of clashes between Mormons , citizens of other denominations, and federal forces such as the United States Marshals Service . After the authorities moved to the Salt Lake City and County Building , it served as the police headquarters until 1915 and gradually became less important as it was used.
