The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints revealed more details

Monday about the locations of five new temples announced by President

Thomas S. Monson at the church's General Conference this past Saturday:

  • For the temple serving the greater Kansas City area, the site will be

    in Clay County, Mo., on residential land within the Kansas City limits

    that is already being developed by the church. The development is known

    as Shoal Creek.

  • The temple in Cordoba, Argentina, will be situated on the Belgrano

    meetinghouse site, next to the present mission home of the church.

  • The Calgary temple will be built on church-owned land next to an

    existing chapel in the northwest part of the city, at the intersection

    of Rocky Ridge Road and Royal Oak Road.

  • In Rome, the temple will occupy part of a 15-acre church-owned site

    near the ring road skirting the northeast section of the city.

No designs have been completed for the temples announced on Saturday.
