The Manti National Guard Armory, at 50 E. 100 North in Manti, Utah was built in 1936-38 as a Works Progress Administration project.[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]

It is a two-story PWA Moderne-style, flat-roofed building.[2]

It was designed by Salt Lake City architect Niels P. Larsen, who also designed at least six other armories in Utah. Surviving, as of 1986, were the NRHP-listed Mount Pleasant National Guard Armory and ones in Nephi, Fillmore, and Spanish Fork (the latter was NRHP-listed in 1986, but was delisted in 1996,[1] presumably after being demolished); ones in Logan and Cedar City had been demolished.[3]
