Installing Glass in the Yorba Linda California Temple

Windows frames and glass are being installed in the window openings of the Yorba Linda California Temple. On the roof deck, tiles have been stacked and prepared for installation while cladding of the exterior walls in marble and granite panels is progressing. Yorba Linda is known as the "Land of Gracious Living." Although it is located in Greater Los Angeles Area, it retains a small-town character and strong sense of community.

Installing the Foundation Walls for the Teton River Idaho Temple

Construction of the Teton River Idaho Temple has been underway for the past four-and-a-half months, and the foundation walls are now rising above grade. The temple site is located approximately 1.5 miles (2.4 km) south of the Teton River, which is a tributary of the Henry's Fork of the Snake River. On a clear day in Rexburg, you can look east and see the majestic Teton mountain range, located in Northwest Wyoming.

The temple is located across the state line from Torreón in the adjoining city of Gómez Palacio. The neighborhood features street names named after European cities like Madrid, Rome, Amsterdam, Vienna, Bern, Paris, Nice, London, Berlin, Oslo, Brussels, Copenhagen, and Prague.

Applying the Finishing Touches to the Auckland New Zealand Temple

The sloping grounds are planted with healthy vegetation that beautifully contrasts with light-colored retaining walls and stone cladding of the temple.
