The interior is decorated in bronze, iron, Russian mahogany, and oak from France and England. The mansion has a bowling alley in the basement, and used to have a large metal safe to keep candy guarded.

In 1993, a fire damaged the building and almost $8 million was spent restoring the residence, according to Salt Lake City’s City Hall.
