The buildings were deemed significant for association with the urbanization of Salt Lake City in the early 20th century. The property consists of the three-story brick Classical Revival-style Altadena Apartments and an associated building, the Sampson Apartments. These were "early examples from this period of apartment construction, during which time the typical apartment block was a three-story walk-up with two units on each floor flanking a central staircase. The Altadena and Sampson apartment blocks standout as high-end architectural representatives of the property type."[3]
The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.[1]
