Granite cladding is bringing the exterior of the Provo Utah Rock Canyon Temple closer to its finished appearance, with skilled stone masons installing panels across the upper floors on the south side of the building. Work has progressed between the large arched windows and has also begun around the base of the tower. Golden window headers crown the tops of the tall arched windows spanning the second and third floors. At the rear of the temple, sidewalks are being poured between the exterior stairways as landscape and hardscape improvements take shape.

A gleaming new detail has appeared high above the Querétaro Mexico Temple, drawing the eye to the top of its central tower. Crews have installed the gold finial and lantern assembly atop the blue patterned dome, adding a distinctive finishing accent to the temple’s silhouette. The crowning feature marks a significant step as the exterior nears completion, while finish work continues inside the temple and landscaping progresses across the surrounding grounds.

Photorealistic renderings of the Wellington New Zealand Temple were prepared by Virtual View in collaboration with Rough Milne Mitchell Landscape Architects to support the project’s resource consent during the approval process for the temple’s construction. The daytime and nighttime views depict the planned temple, landscaping, and exterior lighting. With the majority of the structural framing now complete, the temple is beginning to take shape as envisioned in the renderings.

Tilt-up precast-concrete walls now define much of the lower profile of the João Pessoa Brazil Temple. Steel framing is being assembled across the upper portion of the building, establishing the structural framework for the temple’s single central steeple. A tower crane supports the ongoing structural work, while additional foundation and site work continues on the ancillary building across from the temple. The temple is prominently taking shape along the busy roadways bordering the property.
