Church Administration Building

The Church Administration Building is the main central office for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The building is located immediately east of Temple Square between the Joseph Smith Memorial Building and the Lion House on South Temple in Salt Lake City, Utah. The building is small in comparison to those around it and is often overlooked as secondary to the Church Office Building located across the plaza. Built in 1917, the building has continually been used by most general authorities including the First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve ever since. The building is highly secured and not accessible to the public. The inside of the building is nicely maintained to the point that it looks much like a temple throughout most of the offices. The building is accessible from the main street, though the majority of those who work there access it from the parking garage underneath.
