In Pictures: C9 boom continues

Construction continues unabated in the Central Ninth neighborhood.  Two larger projects, the Alinéa Lofts and the C9 Flats are now well into the construction process.  A new townhouse development, The Ruth, a mixed-use project at 800 South and 300 West is partially framed out.  And the SLC Youth Hostel is making slow progress.

In addition, several previously reported projects are now complete, including The Ruby townhomes, the 200 West Apartments, Central Ninth Place townhomes, and the historic home restoration as part of the Jefferson Walkway project.
