| Temple Square renovation update: Salt Lake Temple’s estimated completion date amended

March 2023 updates to the Salt Lake Temple’s multi-year seismic renovation efforts and the overall Temple Square renovation project include an amended completion date of 2026 for the temple.
“Construction on the renovation and seismic retrofit of the iconic Salt Lake Temple continues at a deliberate and measured pace,” said a news release posted Thursday, March 23, on ChurchofJesusChrist.org. “However, when working with historic structures such as this pioneer-era temple, unexpected challenges and setbacks are inevitable.”
A 2025 completion date had been previously announced for the iconic Salt Lake Temple. In consulting with the project’s numerous architects, engineers and contractors, Church leaders believe more time is needed on the upgrade and renovations to the temple.
