MIDA’s East Village-area bonds total over $1B (opens the original)

Read excerpt
Heber City sculptor Steven Neal is hard at work on 71 pieces of art centered on the Book of Mormon and the country’s founding. Two patriotic statues, Neal’s depiction of George Washington and his friend Michael Hall’s sculpture of Thomas Jefferson, were installed Wednesday, Sept. 16, outside the Capitol in Salt Lake City.
