Directly across the street from City Creek Park, the one-acre site of Brigham Young Memorial Park takes visitors back to the days when Brigham Young led pioneers to Salt Lake Valley in 1847. Young, often called "a modern-day Moses", traveled with followers from the Midwest and East to the Rocky Mountains in an effort to flee the persecution that began with the founding of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1830.
Water is used throughout the park to illustrate the pioneer days. A water wheel shows how pioneers produced electrical power, while the creek itself illustrates pioneer agricultural irrigation. There is also a display of women and children working in a vegetable garden, and of bronzed figures depicting men quarrying sandstone for building projects.
