The Beehive House, official Residence of Brigham Young

This is what the Beehive House (on right) and the Lion House (on left) looked like when Connal Lee visited in 1857.  Notice the wall around the Young Estate.  

Another view of the wall around the Young Estate in 1857.  

Looking east along South Temple (before the Utah War it was called Brigham Street), with Lion House's distinctive pointed dormers.  Note all the trees.  The wall around the Young Estate can be seen continuing up the hill behind the Beehive House.
