The Pagoda (also known as the World War I Memorial or World War I Monument) [1] is a memorial designed by architect and WWI veteran Slack Winburn (1895-1964), [2] installed in Salt Lake City's Memory Grove in the U.S. state of Utah. Along with the park's entry gates, the Pagoda was built c. 1925. [2] It was the park's first memorial using marble from Vermont, and the classical structure has eight Doric columns. The shaft and urn were added in 1932. [3]
Winburn attended the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, after serving in France during WWI. This classical training influenced him to create Period Revival-style designs. [2]
