Construction of the Wellington New Zealand Temple Goes Vertical
Vertical construction is underway at the Wellington New Zealand Temple site, where heavy steel beams and columns are rising above the completed foundation. A truck-mounted telescoping crane is used to lift and position the steel as the structural frame takes shape. The temple is situated on the elevated eastern portion of the property, which slopes down toward street level. The mature trees surrounding the site create a beautiful, natural setting for the sacred structure.

Plans for the site also include an ancillary building that will house an arrival center, patron housing, and a distribution center. It has been more than 17 months since the temple's groundbreaking ceremony.
