A four-story building with approximately 36,000 square feet, the Brigham City Utah Temple is patterned after the classic designs of the Church's Logan, Manti and Salt Lake temples. It will be the 14th temple in Utah.
The new temple will feature a limestone exterior and a peach-blossom motif.
The temple will face east toward the Box Elder tabernacle and will have two spires — the taller one with its Angel Moroni statue that will rise several feet higher than the Box Elder Tabernacle's tallest point.
An estimated 7,000 packed the temple site property and the lawns of the tabernacle. Ceremonies were also broadcast live to a dozen local stake centers.
Construction on the temple is expected to take 18 to 20 months. It will likely be ready for dedication and operation in two years, Elder Walker said.
