Preston First Ward

 Built in 1949, the Preston First Ward chapel is fairly unique. It is vaguely similar to the chapel found in Rupert, Idaho, but the tower is taller and the whole building is white, giving it a stately appearance.

This building was included on Richard Jackson's list of tabernacles.

    2nd Street in Idaho Falls has an all White meetinghouse.

      The Idaho falls chapel you've mentioned is a great example of art deco. The Preston first ward chapel is more art moderne. Both chapels in my opinion are very unique and quite nice.

      I have driven past the Idaho Falls Chapel, but still need to document that one properly. I also have to come back to this one at some point to document the interior. They're really both nice.
