About the Gilbert Arizona Temple
At 3301 South Greenfield Road, on the corner with East Pecos Road in Gilbert, Arizona, stands a temple of the Latter-day Saint church. Church president Thomas S. Monson announced plans for it on April 26, 2008. It is the fourth temple built in Arizona, built because church membership in the area was growing and to take some load off the nearby Mesa Arizona Temple.
On September 29, 2009, the town council of Gilbert unanimously approved the zoning changes requested, including permission to build to 85 feet instead of the 45 feet the rules allowed. A planned steeple of 180 feet (55 m) needed no exemption, since the town sets no height limit on steeples. Architekton designed the temple, with Gregory B. Lambright overseeing the design, and a groundbreaking ceremony was held on November 13, 2010. A public open house took place between January 18 and February 15, 2014, and it was dedicated on March 2, 2014.
The temple sits on 15.4 acres and stands 195 feet tall with its angel Moroni statue, which was placed on May 15, 2012. It covers 85,326 square feet. The exterior is finished in precast concrete, light cream in color, with white quartz. The design follows the traditional Latter-day Saint temple pattern, and the grounds include fountains, plazas, trellises, arbors and pergolas. After dedication, only church members holding a current temple recommend may enter to worship.
