The Junction — Local services in Ogden

This is a novel adventure-entertainment concept, well executed, when it was built. There are similar adventure offers in warehouses in strip malls and industrial areas, probably at lower prices. This was built as an entertainment and dining hub in a rejuvenated downtown area, and was located and designed to attract locals and tourists.

It's been great to see this property which formerly housed the old Ogden City Mall get developed and become a thriving epicenter of...
