Description

Single Story Temple with no basement. A single baptistery is in the center of the temple directly under the spire. At the back of the temple is a Celestial Room, with an endowment room in one back corner, and a sealing room in the other back corner.

Temples of this floorplan range from 8,759-12,500 differences in the official square footage can be explained either through variations in how localities calculate footage, or temple rooms being made bigger or smaller for larger or smaller lots or estimated patronage.

Modular Temples

This temple floor plan saw a new method of construction, with temple sections being built in a factory, and these modules then being shipped out to the site for assembly and to have the exterior constructed around it.

Multi-Purpose Rooms

An unusual feature of this floor plan is that it was designed so that both the endowment room and the sealing room can be rearranged to perform either function, at any time giving the temple 2 Endowment rooms or 2 Sealing rooms, with none of the other. This is accomplished by giving both rooms padded single chairs, rather than putting in the linked fold down theater seating we usually see in endowment rooms.

Despite this planned flexibility, there is indication that in at least 2 of the temples, Helena Montana and Casper Wyoming, the endowment room now has permanent seating in the Endowment room, the chairs having been replaced with the More comfortable theater seating. This Change has directly lead to the creation of a new floor plan, the 19 k square foot variant. This plan is very similar in layout, but has 1 permanent endowment room, 1 permanent sealing room, and one multipurpose room that can be configured either way.
