The 135-year-old Broadbent’s building was demolished on Monday, February 4. Neighbors and residents gathered to watch and photograph the demolition of the iconic structure.
Lehi City is moving forward with plans to construct a public safety building on the property where Broadbent’s department store stood for 126 years. Architectural renderings for the Public Works Buildings that will replace Broadbent’s on 100 East in Lehi were previously made available for public viewing during an open house.
During an open house held on Tuesday, December 11, Lehi City revealed architectural drawings for the new public safety building designed to replace Broadbent’s and other structures.
The new public safety building is intended to pay homage to pioneer roots. While plans for the new Lehi Public Safety Complex moved forward, only a handful of citizens attended a meeting to express opinions regarding the projected project on the former Broadbent’s property and surrounding area.
