The LDS church unveiled a new meetinghouse at the base of downtown’s 95 State at City Creek office building.
A four-story, 39,000-square-foot meetinghouse, with two chapels, has been fused into the church’s new 95 State at City Creek office tower.
The facility will house six wards, or congregations, including two for young single adults. It will also be home to the historic, a regional group of Latter-day Saint congregations organized in 1847 and the oldest continuous stake in the global faith of 16.8 million members. “With the changes that are happening along with that,” he said, “we see a great opportunity for the church to continue to grow here as well.”
Ashley Powell, president and CEO of Property Reserve Inc., a real estate investment arm of the church, said interest from commercial tenants was high before the pandemic but dropped off after the public health crisis swept the globe.
