I am not a Mormon, I have never been to Provo. But I was saddened to see the old tabernacle burn and I have been checking back from time to time to see what the renovation, if any, would look like. It does not seem so much like a restoration. Seems more like a new building with part of the old building retained as a sort of top cover. Well, I hope it works out for them, and safely. Will be interesting to see how it turns out.

This building has huge historic & spiritual significance in a town rooted in its past & present faith. Personally, I have sweet memories of my oldest as a baby crawling up & down the front spiral stairs. I was heartbroken when it burned; fearful of its uncertain future; then overjoyed that it was to be renovated. It probably would be cheaper to just rebuild, but it wouldn't be the same. And it's not hard to understand the symbolism of an edifice ravaged by fire, and reborn to a higher purpose.

They did the same thing to Christ Church cathedral in 1987 in Montreal.

Temples are heavy in symbolism. Different temples have different means of bringing that about....all of which point to the marvels of God. I think the symbolism of build from the rubble to something greater is a beautiful and appropriate symbol for a house of the Lord.

As pessoas precisam conhecer melhor a história dos pioneiros e todo o sacrifício feito para que hoje possamos desfrutar das bençãos completas em nossas vidas e muitos destes edifícios são parte disto.

Is it a requirement that the salvation of the dead be done from below the earth? Is that why they are doing this?

Steven John The square footage of the tabernacle is not sufficient for all the services a temple offers and the population it will serve. To not change the look of the structure 2 additional floors are being built below it. In order for that to happen and make it earthquake resistant a lot of excavation is necessary. Thus the stilts were a good solution to the problem.
