This project involved major remodeling to expand the temple’s existing installations and adapt them to the new leadership’s vision. The first stage of the project consisted of heavy demolition and structural work and the second stage was focused on civil engineering aspects, installations and carpentry work. In continuation of its plan, the Church also decided to annex a new building to be used for missionary housing and fully revamp the existing residence. Special features of this project included the large size of the concrete structure, the tile roofs , interior sheetrock paneling and the meticulous attention to detail required on decorations and finishings.
