Construction is underway inside the former meeting hall of the Fundamentalist LDS Church in Colorado City, Arizona. It will reopen as a community center as the Short Creek Legacy Center.
COLORADO CITY, Ariz. — Construction is under way inside the former meeting hall of the Fundamentalist LDS Church.
Barlow recently gave FOX 13 News a tour of the property under a multi-million dollar renovation project. The building was previously known as the Leroy S. Johnson Meetinghouse, where FLDS faithful once worshiped. Now, it will become the Short Creek Legacy Center — a community center for all. Now, there are plans for a dance studio, space for music lessons, a computer lab to help people with homework and job searches. A commercial kitchen will help prepare foods for large gatherings. There's a big open space for community events.
"Understand, this is the building where a lot of crimes against the people were committed by Warren Jeffs," said Hildale Mayor Donia Jessop."So it’s been very traumatizing. To even drive by it, some people are like, no!" she said, gasping."To walk in it can be worse. What we’re doing is we’ve stripped that building down, we're taking it down to bare bones."
"It's something that will really bring the community together," said Colorado City Mayor Howard Ream."Just the cultural aspect and being able to bring art into the community and a place for people to gather."
