1. Lewis W. and Lydia Brown Lunch House Marker

Inscription. Constructed in 1905 for Lewis and Lydia Lund, this house replaced a small adobe dwelling which the Lunds had been living in since 1894. Mr. Lund was a prominent businessman, banker, livestockman, and one-time mayor of Pleasant Grove. He was well-known for his horse breeding business, which produced some of the best draft horses in the area. This two-story brick, Victorian Eclectic style house is one of several houses of this type which were built in Pleasant Grove between 1902 and 1908. This property retains its historic architectural integrity and is a contributing resource within the Pleasant Grove Historic District.
