Of all the strange places for an original Capitol Lion to end up, it's at a roofing and asphalt business. This is one of the four original concrete lions placed at the east and west entrances of the Utah State Capitol, carved in 1915 and repaired by Ralphael Plescia in 1977. They were replaced by marble replicas in 2009.
It should be an interesting view and story to tell!
There is plenty of shade to sit in if the sun is out.
