Although the office of mayor of Salt Lake City is a nonpartisan one, Corradini was a Democrat. This is not unusual for Salt Lake City, which tends to have more Democrats than the rest of historically-Republican Utah. Indeed, the city has had several Democratic mayors in the recent past, including Ted Wilson and Palmer DePaulis (Corradini's two predecessors) and Rocky Anderson (her successor).

Many were upset with a deal she negotiated on behalf of the city to sell a block of Main Street — then city property — to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon church"). However, the conversion of this block into a church plaza was one of the 14 major projects put forth by the city in its 1962 Second Century Plan. While some asserted that the transfer was in exchange for the LDS Church's support of the Olympic Games,^{[citation needed]} the church was not initially in favor of them.^[1] The Salt Lake Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the largest attraction in the citys Temple Square. ...

During her tenure, Corradini pushed hard (and ultimately successfully) for the relocation of the Union Pacific railroad tracks that divided downtown, pushed through the TRAX light-rail system, and won massive federal funding for reconstruction of the freeway system in advance of the Olympic Games (one of the largest single public works transit projects in recent American history). She also was the guiding force for the construction of the popular baseball stadium for the (then) AAA Salt Lake Buzz, at the time, the farm team for the Minnesota Twins), the redevelopment of a 50 year old railyard into the 30 acre (121,000 m²), $375 million Gateway District mixed-use development, resulting in two million square feet (186,000 m²) of shops, restaurants, office space, and housing, as well as a 12 screen movie theatre a planetarium as well as plans for a children's museum.
