Saltair, Entertainment complex on Great Salt Lake, Utah, United States.
The grand pavilion stretches 1200 feet in length and rises 130 feet above the water, supported by 2500 steel piles driven into the lake bed.
The Mormon Church constructed the original Saltair in 1893 as a resort destination, connecting it to Salt Lake City through a dedicated railway line.
The dance floor at Saltair attracted thousands of visitors who enjoyed performances, vaudeville shows, and social gatherings during the early 20th century.
Located 16 miles from Salt Lake City, the resort offered swimming opportunities in highly saline waters where visitors float without effort.
Engineers used steam injection techniques to dissolve the lake bottom temporarily, allowing support posts to lock firmly in solidified sodium deposits.
