Las Vegas (NV) Ward

This chapel was built in 1932 in the Tudor Revival style. At the time, it was nearly on the edge of town; now, this building is just a few blocks away from the famous Las Vegas strip.

The building is in very good condition, but its been affected by changing demographics in this area. Latter-day Saints tend to live in the suburbs, and as this neighborhood became more and more urban, wards moved away from the building. Today, the building serves as a family history center. However, the chapel is still intact. We'll take a look at it next week.
