St. Mary Monastery |
Here’s the Saint Mary Monastery, the Temple’s
immediate neighbor across the street to the west. From the intersection
of Mulholland and Wells Streets, looking to the northwest, the
Temple is just off the picture to the right.
By the time this picture was taken, this entire complex had been
purchased by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and I was
told that the sisters would be moving by the end of the month (November
2001). When you read this, the “Monastery” sign will
probably have gone away. The northern portion, visible at far right and
here had already undergone transformation to
its new identity as the Joseph Smith Academy.
