Historic 25th Street, Historic district in Ogden, United States.
Historic 25th Street is a three-block stretch in Ogden featuring restored red brick buildings from the 19th century that connect Union Station to Washington Boulevard. The facades display typical commercial architecture of that era, with multi-story structures and details that maintain the original appearance.
The arrival of the transcontinental railroad in 1869 transformed this street into a central commercial hub with hotels and entertainment venues. The street rapidly grew into a significant business district that drew travelers and workers.
The street hosts art galleries, independent shops, and restaurants housed in preserved structures that reflect 1800s architectural style. Visitors can encounter local artists and makers working in spaces that once bustled with commercial activity.
Visitors can explore the area through walking, passing local restaurants, shops, and Union Station along the way. The flat terrain and compact length make it easy to traverse the entire street on foot.
The street once earned the nickname Two Bit Street, named after a cheap coin, because railroad workers quickly spent their wages in saloons, hotels, and gambling houses. This name reflects the rough and busy nature that once defined the area.
