Work is progressing on the hardscape features at the main entrance to the Grand Rapids Michigan Temple, creating an attractive and durable gathering space for patrons and guests. Curved planter walls are taking shape around the plaza, while preparations continue for additional landscaping. Installation of stone cladding is advancing along the exterior parapets, and work is expected to soon begin on the front portico and steeple.

Granite cladding installation is now underway on the exterior walls of the Vancouver Washington Temple, located in the community of Camas. On the west side of the property, concrete stairs have been poured to connect the lower parking lot with the circular viewing plaza. The structural walls and roof of the grounds maintenance building are in place, while work continues on the parking areas surrounding the temple.

Light-colored stone cladding is now substantially complete on three sides of the Austin Texas Temple, giving the building much of its finished exterior appearance. At the center of the structure, preparations are underway for the installation of the tower's exterior finishes. On the east side of the property, crews are making progress on site improvements, including the construction of walkways, curbs, and parking areas.

At the north end of the Anchorage Alaska Temple site, installation of stone veneer is underway on the retaining structures, adding a finished architectural texture that complements the temple’s exterior materials. Along the permanent fencing that borders the street side of the property, landscaping crews are establishing green space to soften the transition from roadway to temple grounds and enhance the overall setting of the site.
