What Could Go at the Old Dunkin’ Donuts on 400 South?

Salt Lake City was the fastest growing city in Utah over the past year, according to new data from the U.S. Census.

Hey Salt Lake Newsletter editor Terina Ria, producer Ivana Martinez, and executive producer Emily Means dream big about what could go in these spots instead.
