Developers of a new skyscraper in downtown Salt Lake City want to push the skyline even higher.
Backers of Kensington Tower, a luxury residential project proposed at the northwest corner of 200 South and State Street, are asking city planners to lift a 375-foot cap set by existing rules for that downtown corner lot.
With at least 39 floors, the building is designed to rise a total of 448 feet, including a high-speed elevator shaft serving top-floor penthouses, according to initial plans by Kensington Investment Company, a Boston-based real estate investment firm with offices in Park City.
