Historic Downtown

The Historic Downtown is a one-block area between Center Street to 200 North in Cedar City.

Many of the merchants in the Cedar City Historic Downtown Shopping District have restored their buildings to their original turn of the century splendor. The renovations have made the area a charming place to meet, dine and shop. The quaint shops and boutiques are fun to browse. Be sure to stop by Jolley's Ranchwear to pick out a new cowboy hat or fancy new cowboy boots. The building was once the Cedar Motel back in booming days of the Iron Mining. Bulloch Drug Store offers an old fashioned soda fountain and the best ice cream malts in the five county area. The building was originally used as co-op store for the Cedar City Cooperative Sheep Association. Shareholders in the association could draw dividends in the form of merchandise from the "sheep store".
