Demolition of the building that stood on the Tampa Florida Temple site has been completed. The facility formerly housed Cooley Law School, which relocated to the Tampa Oaks neighborhood of Temple Terrace. There are two temples in operation in Florida in Tallahassee and Fort Lauderdale. The temple in Orlando is closed for renovation, and plans have been announced for a fifth temple in Jacksonville.

Landscaping is moving forward on the San Diego California Temple grounds where palm trees have returned to the berms that flank the south lawn and plaza area. The temple has been under renovation for the past 21 months and is expected to be completed later this year, as announced in a local stake conference. Renovation activities have included refurnishing and some reconfiguring of the interior, cleaning and repairs to the exterior, and replanting of the grounds.

Cladding of the Fort Worth Texas Temple tower has been completed, joining the east and south sides of the main building. Work continues on the north and west sides and will later begin on the mission-style parapet around the base of the tower. The brick exterior of the meetinghouse has been completed, and windows have been installed. The hard elements of the entrance plaza are taking shape on the grounds.

Clear glass windows are replacing plastic sheeting at the Knoxville Tennessee Temple, as construction of the building advances. At a later stage, panes of stained glass will be installed behind the clear glass. Hanging brackets for the exterior stonework have been fastened to the facade of the temple, while cladding progresses at the rear side of the building. With the structure enclosed, work is moving forward on the interior.
