In 2006, the Salt Lake City government purchased the house, which was originally the home of a prominent German brewer. Restoration costs were estimated at over $1.7 million, so the city began raising money by arranging tours of the property,[2] and $150,000 was obtained through a federal grant.[3]

As a consequence of the Salt Lake City 5.7 magnitude earthquake on March 18th, 2020, the mansion was damaged, leading to a closure of the building to the public, boarding up of all the windows and the removal all three damaged chimneys down to the roofline.

In September 2020, a plan was approved to renovate the Fisher Carriage House, which included fixing damage it sustained by the earthquake
