Windows Installed in the Kona Hawaii Temple
Clear glass windows have been installed in the rough openings of the Kona Hawaii Temple, which was framed and covered with a weather-resistive barrier over the past several months. Steel columns can be seen in front of the main entrance for the canopy-style portico that will stand over the doorway. The temple closed for reconstruction and enlargement over two years ago. Construction is expected to continue throughout the coming year.
Earthworks Underway at the Wellington New Zealand Temple Site
Earthworks have begun at the Wellington New Zealand Temple site. The property enjoys a picturesque setting near Porirua Harbour, a natural inlet surrounded by the city of Porirua in the Wellington Region. Views of the site are available from a natural lookout that stands in the Aotea neighborhood. Heavy equipment is currently grading the land and preparing for excavation for the foundation. The groundbreaking was held four months ago.
Cladding the Exterior of the Cagayan de Oro Philippines Temple
A recent aerial photograph of the Cagayan de Oro Philippines Temple shows the exterior cladding progress being made at the southeast corner of the building with the blue waters of Macajalar Bay in the distance. The building behind the temple is an ancillary building that will house an arrival center, patron housing, and distribution center. The temple follows the same floor plan as the Davao Philippines Temple, located on the south side of the same island.
Belo Horizonte Brazil Temple in Final Stages of Construction
