SALT LAKE CITY-Wednesday, the latest information on the renovation of the Salt Lake Temple was updated.
This includes the reinforcement of the Salt Lake temple roof, the continued renovation of the Church Office Building Plaza to the east and additional excavation on the north side of the temple.
In early August, the north crane foundation was poured using 350 cubic yards of 267 cubic meters of concrete.
This will allow for a second tower crane to be constructed that will be 250 feet or 83 meters in height.
Excavation has now reached 45 feet below street level on the north side of the Salt Lake Temple.
Twenty more feet of soil will be removed before construction begins on the three-level underground north addition.
These facilities will include the baptismal fonts, additional sealing rooms, dressing rooms, administrative offices and so forth.
