1876-1893 (Pioneer)
Multi- Floor Progressive Temples
Description
The first true step into temples with dedicated space for the Endowment and Sealing ceremonies. These consisted of 4 progressive style endowment rooms spread across 2 to 3 floors of the temple. Each of these 3 temples was finished off with a full floor assembly hall on the top floor. Each temple was initially built with a single baptistry, surrounded by booths for the initiatory.
Rather than being one specific floor plan, this is a series of three successive plans, each one changing issues the previous temples experienced. As such, these temples do not share a floor plan per se.
