Valerie was invited on a hard-hat tour of the Stake Meetinghouse being constructed next to the Temple with a Troop of Boy Scouts. Photo taking was limited but she did get some unique pictures and facts.
The building is 20,000 square feet.
5 architects are assigned to this "prototype" building.
There is an outdoor reception atrium in the center of the building.
You can see the Temple from the large windows in the chapel, facing the north.
Construction is behind schedule and they are working quickly to complete the meetinghouse to be used as overflow and staging for the Temple open house.
They got to wear "cool" hard hats.
My three favorite features....the spire, the atrium, and those vintage-looking-temple-view windows.
