The 9th & 9th Whale is more than just a colorful piece of public art.

For years, runners have made it a tradition to circle the whale before heading out on long runs, with some even completing marathon-distance routes that begin and end at this iconic Salt Lake City landmark. What started as a neighborhood sculpture has become a gathering place, a meeting point, and a symbol of community.

Whether you’re logging miles, grabbing coffee, or just passing through, the whale remains one of Salt Lake City’s most beloved landmarks.

Have you ever run around the whale?

Which one would you choose to live in?

Craftsman and Prairie houses are both rooted in early 20th-century American design, but their architectural language is different.

Craftsman homes emphasize handcraft, natural materials, exposed rafters, low gabled roofs, and deep front porches. Prairie houses are more horizontal and site-connected, with broad eaves, low hipped roofs, bands of windows, and long, flowing compositions.

One feels warm and crafted; the other feels low, open, and landscape-driven.
