SilverLake is a master-planned community located about 35 miles south of Salt Lake City on approximately 482 acres. Situated on a picturesque high plateau, the project is just west of Utah Lake and east of Eagle Mountain's foothills. The community is divided into three distinct enclaves or subdivisions, featuring a wide range of housing types and commercial areas at varying developmental densities.
The design theme for SilverLake is derived from the natural and agrarian landscape of Utah County and is strongly rooted in the heritage of the Wasatch Front and rural Utah in general. An emphasis is placed on the preservation of existing natural features such as drainage courses, wildlife corridors, and view sheds. The neighborhood includes strategically planned open spaces, trails, playgrounds, and an amphitheater near Pony Express Parkway.
Eagle Mountain is situated approximately 40 miles south of Salt Lake City and 30 miles north of Provo, within one of Utah County's fastest-growing areas. Since its incorporation in 1996, the city has experienced rapid growth, with a population reaching around 60,000 residents as of 2024. Covering over 50 square miles, Eagle Mountain is one of the largest cities in Utah, providing residents with ample open spaces and a deep connection to the surrounding natural landscape.
The city offers a wealth of recreational amenities, featuring four regional parks and over 50 neighborhood parks, alongside more than 90 miles of trails for walking, biking, and horseback riding. Off-road enthusiasts can explore nearby Five Mile Pass, which includes various trails and insights into Utah’s historical significance. Eagle Mountain also promotes community engagement through events like the annual Pony Express Days, which celebrate the city's historical ties to the Pony Express Trail, along with other local gatherings that enhance safety, pride, and participation among residents.
