(Living in a Local Historic District | Historic Preservation (Salt Lake City)) Salt Lake City preservation staff say unpainted historic masonry should stay unpainted, because paint can trap moisture and severely damage the structural integrity of the masonry. (Living in a Local Historic District | Historic Preservation (Salt Lake City)) Unreinforced masonry buildings have brick walls with few or no steel reinforcing bars, are typically older structures, and are more likely than modern structures to collapse inward and outward during an earthquake.
