The Sandy Co-Op Block, located at 8750 South Center St. (150 East), in Sandy, Utah, was built in 1889. Known later as Sandy Museum, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.^[1]

Its 1992 NRHP nomination asserted it is important "as a distinct and important type of commercial structure which was common in Sandy City in the latter half of the nineteenth century. This structure is the only remaining two-story commercial block from Sandy's original commercial district." It is associated with the mining, smelting, and small farm era of Sandy. Sandy had been connected by railroad in 1871.^[2]
