Riverfront is situated in South Salt Lake alongside the Jordan River. The community features beautiful single-family homes in the rambler and two story design style, and is highlighted by spectacular views of the Wasatch mountains range.
The area is ideally located between I-15 and I-215, making an easy commute to a majority of the valley; easy access to downtown, the airport, and both the University of Utah and Salt Lake Community College.
South Salt Lake spans approximately 6.9 square miles and borders West Valley City, Millcreek, and Salt Lake City. Incorporated in 1938, the city was established to address the community's needs for utility lines and public services, including a local post office and fire station. Despite an offer from Salt Lake City to annex the area, residents chose to form their own municipality to expedite essential services.
This spirit of innovation and independence remains vibrant today. In recent years, South Salt Lake has seen a surge of startup craft breweries and revitalization of the downtown area, enhancing its walkability and access via FrontRunner public transportation. The city’s growing population has fostered increased diversity, leading to a variety of ethnic restaurants and shops. A notable highlight is Salt Lake Chinatown, a 5.7-acre shopping center development that showcases this rich cultural diversity.
