Scaffolding Removed from the Montpelier Idaho Temple Steeple

A recent photograph of the Montpelier Idaho Temple shows the recently completed steeple under nighttime lighting. The cupola and stained-glass windows have been added to the newly clad tower, and the pedestal will be completed next. In the foreground is the John A. Bagley House, known locally as the Purple Sage. It is a three-story Queen Anne-style residence built in 1902 with a distinctive octagonal corner tower and original murals.

Property Entrance Gates Installed at the Syracuse Utah Temple

Beautifully ornamented wrought-iron gates have been installed at the driveway entrance to the Syracuse Utah Temple site. The temple has entered the final stages of construction, which began almost three-and-a-half years ago. Standing approximately five miles west of I-15 near the West Davis Corridor, it will serve the growing Church membership on the west side of Davis County. The county's other three temples are located east of the interstate.

Another Step Forward for the Lone Mountain Nevada Temple

Construction of the Lone Mountain Nevada Temple in northwest Las Vegas took another step forward on Tuesday when the Las Vegas Planning Commission voted to vacate a city easement on the 17.5-acre temple site to accommodate a drainage line for the project, which was approved by the City Council in July. Both supporters and opponents were in attendance, including members of the Nevada Rural Preservation Alliance who are currently taking legal action against the City of Las Vegas regarding its vote on the temple project.

Cladding Moving Up the Belo Horizonte Brazil Temple Tower

Orange safety fences have been placed along the edge of the roof of the Belo Horizonte Brazil Temple, providing protection to crews who are on the roof regularly to clad the tower in stone. The temple stands in a hilly location of the city enveloped in natural beauty. The temple grounds will be a formal extension of the surrounding nature, featuring colorful flowerbeds and well-groomed trees.
