Items related to West Valley City (Images of America)
In the fall of 1848, Joseph and Susanna Harker became the first pioneers “Over Jordan” as they crossed to the west side seeking a new home in the valley. Other families soon followed, and by the 1880s, canals brought irrigation water, allowing farming settlements to spread out toward the Oquirrh Mountains. The agrarian communities of Hunter, Granger, Redwood, and Chesterfield began to take shape. The decades after World War II saw enormous growth, new neighborhoods, and the Valley Fair Mall. When the area finally incorporated as West Valley City in 1980, it was immediately one of Utah’s largest cities. The city has seen remarkable progress in its first three decades, including being a venue city for the 2002 Winter Olympic Games and emerging as Utah’s most ethnically diverse city.

About the Author:
Mayor Mike Winder’s enthusiasm for his city shows with the broad variety of photographs he has gathered to illustrate the first-ever pictorial history of Utah’s second largest city. Mayor Winder, also a member of the Utah Board of State History and author of nine published books, has carefully gone through city and state archives, family collections, and newspaper archive negatives to bring together these rarely seen images.
