Construction of Philly's Unique Mormon Temple Without Caffeine, Smoking, Swearing

It's been two years since ground was broken in Center City on a massive Mormon temple and visitors' center, and it might just be the most unique construction site the city’s ever known. Let’s just say the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-day Saints (LDS) goes by its own rules — not those typically found in local union handbooks. And it makes sure those rules are enforced.

No smoking. No coffee. No swearing.

Praying optional — but encouraged.
