The Scowcroft Warehouse is a historic building in Ogden, Utah. It was built as a four-storey warehouse with a basement in 1900 for John Scowcroft and Sons, whose founder John Scowcroft converted to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in England before immigrating to Utah with his family in 1880.[2] He was the founder and namesake of this dry goods wholesale company in Ogden, and he was also a director of a beetroot sugar manufacturer in Northern Utah called the Ogden Sugar Company, which later merged with several companies to become the Amalgamated Sugar Company.[2] The factory was designed by Ogden architect Leslie S. Hodgson and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[1]
