08,08.06 Temple Square

Temple Square in Salt Lake City, Utah consists of thirty-five acres.

Mormon pioneers began building the Salt Lake City temple in 1853. It was completed in 1893. I was suprised that the powers that be allowed a tall, totally utilitarian office building to overwhelm the once stately temple. I was even more suprised to learn that the uninspiring building was the Mormon Church's own office building. Maybe if I had taken the tour offered of the building I would have a different attitude.
