The Oquirrh School, at 350 South 400 East in Salt Lake City, Utah, was built in 1894. It was designed by architect Richard K.A. Kletting in Romanesque and/or Renaissance style. It has also been known as Oquirrh Place.[1]

It is the only one out of 10 schools designed by Kletting in Salt Lake City that survives. It was a school into the 1960s, and since has been adaptively reused. Its most recent renovation received a preservation award from the Utah Heritage Foundation.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.[1][3]
