Extensive renovation of the temple is complete and was rededicated by Church President Thomas S. Monson on Sunday, September 21, 2014. As part of the renovation, the temple’s entire exterior was reshaped with new stone and art glass. The temple’s main entrance was moved from the west side to the east side, where it faces Washington Boulevard, one of the city’s main streets. The renovation of the temple also includes reconfigured rooms and new energy-saving electrical, heating, and plumbing systems. Other notable improvements include adding underground parking, new landscaping of the temple block, and the addition of a major water feature.
