WEST JORDAN. Built in 1877 on the banks of West Jordan Canal, Gardner Mill was a prominent site for flour-milling in its day. Today, it serves as the centerpiece of this appealing shopping center and stands as a reminder of the mill's importance in the development of Salt Lake City's south side. As you walk through the village, keep in mind that these old buildings ­ a grist mill, mattress factory, blacksmith shop, and general mercantile store ­ were once a-bustle with pioneer spirit. These days, among the village's more noteworthy residents are Archibald's (a top local restaurant) and a host of specialty shops. They offer everything from Christmas ornaments and quilts to antiques and children's books. A petting zoo and pony rides are available seasonally.
