Preparatory work is underway at the Coeur d'Alene Idaho Temple site as the project moves toward groundbreaking later this month on Saturday, August 29. Heavy equipment is grading and leveling the 10.91-acre property, establishing the building pad and preparing the site for the next phase of construction. Survey crews are laying out the site, while earthmoving operations continue across the future temple grounds.

Construction of the Tampa Florida Temple is advancing rapidly as the structural steel framework continues to rise above the completed foundation. Much of the building's primary steel skeleton is now in place, clearly defining the temple's footprint and interior spaces, while the central tower begins to take shape. Steel decking is also being installed across the mechanical level in preparation for a concrete floor slab.

Construction at the Fairview Texas Temple has entered the foundation phase as crews form the concrete footings for the basement and baptismal font. Wood formwork now outlines much of the lower-level foundation, including the octagonal footing layout for the baptismal font. Underground plumbing lines have also been installed throughout the excavation ahead of the foundation concrete pours.

Roofing work is progressing steadily at the Birmingham England Temple, with standing-seam metal panels now covering the north and south wings while steel framing remains exposed over the east and west wings. The temple’s central tower has reached its full structural height, further defining the building’s architectural profile. As the structure is enclosed, crews will prepare for the next phase of interior construction.
