Built in 1867 by Elias Morris, this Mormon meetinghouse was the sole remaining church and public building in West Jordan as of 1995.

The West Jordan Ward Meetinghouse, located at 1140 W. 7800 South in West Jordan, Utah, was designed and built in 1867 by Elias Morris. Built as a Mormon meetinghouse, the structure reflects a style later termed a first-phase meetinghouse and incorporates Classical Revival architecture.

The building is also known as D.U.P. Pioneer Hall. By 1995, it held the historical significance of being the sole remaining church and public building in West Jordan.

Because of its significance, the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.
