Dr. Robert and Kathryn Fowles undertook a massive restoration project of a 1930s home at 1449 Harvard in Yalecrest. They received an award from Preservation Utah in the category of Restoration, Renovation and Stabilization. Both the Utah State Historic Preservation Office and the National Park Service applauded the restoration project by granting state and federal historic preservation tax credits.
