How Far From Academy Park to ...

We spend a lot of time looking through Gazetteers & Almanacs that were published in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Many of the Gazetteers include the distance from a community such as Academy Park to various places of note, such as the White House.

With a nod to our favorite Gazetteers, the straight-line distance beginning in Academy Park and extending to:

• Salt Lake City, which is the Seat of Salt Lake County, lies just to the Northeast.
• Salt Lake City, which is the State Capital of Utah, lies just to the northeast (NE).
• The White House (Washington, DC) is 1,846 miles [2,970.8 km]<1> to the east (E). If you could drive a straight line from Academy Park to White House, with an average speed<3>of 63 miles [101.4 km] per hour, it would take most of three days to make the trip. A comfortable walk of 2.2 miles [3.5 km] per hour would take 105 days. A horse and buggy averaging 3.2 miles [5.1 km] per hour would take 73 days.
• The shortest distance<4> to Jerusalem (specifically the Temple Mount and the Dome of the Rock) is 7,007 miles [11,276.7 km] and it lies to the north northeast (NNE).<5>
• The distance to the Great Mosque of Mecca (specifically the Ka'bah - or Kaaba ) is 7,775 miles [12,512.6 km] and it lies to the north northeast (NNE).<6>
• The distance to Saint Peter's Basilica (The Vatican) is 5,754 miles [9,260.2 km] and it lies to the northeast (NE).<7>
