The Bogan Boarding House, at 221 Main St. in Park City, Utah, was built in c. 1904. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1]

It was deemed significant as one of only four boarding houses surviving in Park City from its mining era, and also as one of only four built in town after a 1901 legislative bill cancelled the right of mine owners to require miners to live in company-owned boarding houses up near their mines (unless married and living with wife/family in town).[2]
