WonderBlock

In response to unprecedented growth along Utah’s Wasatch Front, the City of Ogden is undergoing significant redevelopment. This redevelopment has included a large amount of new housing planned for the community, with projects like WonderBlock a perfect example.

The development site, consisting of approximately 6.5 acres on 26th Street between Grant and Lincoln avenues, was once home to the large Hostess and Wonder Bread factory. The mixed-use project will eventually include 354 residential units. The remaining program will consist of approximately 60,000 square feet of retail, food and beverage, and grocery store space, 100,000 square feet of office space, a 92-room boutique hotel, and over 1,000 structured parking spaces. The first phase entailed development of an 807-stall parking garage on the site ahead of the remainder of the work and was opened in December 2025.

Talisman is responsible for the complete site civil design for the project, in collaboration with Denver-based architecture firm SAR+. Our work has included utility design, site grading, stormwater infrastructure design. Our survey team will be providing subdivision and condominium platting for the entire redevelopment.
