lots of temple construction going on throughout the state it seems. This is Manti Utah Temple. What we found interesting was the stones they were using so we asked google and interestingly enough:
The exterior is made of fine-textured, cream-colored oolite limestone FROM QUARRIES IN THE HILL WHERE IT'S STANDING! The two towers of the temple are 179 feet tall, and the open center spiral staircases inside the towers are marvels of pioneer ingenuity.
