Today, Sugar House is a thriving community with old buildings being replaced by modern structures. Some enduring landmarks such as the Granite Furniture store, the attractive todor style public library and the old Irving Jr. High School facade remind of other times.

There is currently (2008) an effort underway to bring additional public transportation into the area by way of a trolley system which would start at the TRAX Central Point Station (2100 South) and follow the old Union Pacific corridor which runs along 2300 South to Fairmont Park. additional possibilities incude extending the 2300 South line to 1100 East, then north to 1700 South. Also in the plans are extentions east along 2100 South past Sugar House Park to Highland High School.
