So far, about 140 years! :) The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) moved it's headquarters to Utah under the direction of Brigham Young in the 1840's. Brigham Young died in the 1870's. Today, the headquarters of the Church is still there, on the same block where Brigham Young said it should be. Two of his homes are on the block as well and are popular tourist attractions as historic museums, and also serve as a cafe and reception center.
