Beneficial Financial Group - Location

Location

The company headquarters for many years was in the Beneficial Life Tower, directly above the ZCMI Center Mall. This office tower had the company name in large letters along the side, lit in blue at the top of the structure. The words Beneficial Life could be seen from quite a distance as the tower had an entirely unimpeded view of the Salt Lake Valley along the main artery known as State Street.

During the mid-1980s the Beneficial Life tower achieved notoriety when a rare breeding pair of Peregrine Falcons decided to take residence on the company letters on the north side of the building. While many people appreciated the falcons, they were not as popular with the pigeons (their prey) and the motorists who parked on the exposed parking level of the ZCMI Center Mall, where the remains of the falcons' meal would drop on their cars.

Around the year 2006 Beneficial moved to the former Kennecott building on an opposite corner of the same block. Both buildings will remain while almost the entirety of the block is torn down, along with neighboring blocks of downtown Salt Lake City, and turned into a new 1 billion dollar development called the City Creek Center.

Present address is

Beneficial Financial Group 55 North 300 West Salt Lake City, Utah 84145-0654

in the Triad Center in downtown Salt Lake City.
