[1] The first tabernacle used for the Cottonwood and Granite stakes was located on the corner of 33rd South and State street and was constructed in 1903.

The second and current Granite Stake Tabernacle was designed by two young architects, Edward O. Anderson and Lorenzo Snow Young, who would later make an impact on the architecture of many other buildings for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

LDS Church policy mandated that buildings would not be dedicated until they were paid off in full.

Due to the Depression, the tabernacle wasn't dedicated until June 1938 by LDS Church President Heber J.

In 1951 the tabernacle had an additional chapel built adjacent to the original structure for the Lincoln Ward's weekly meetings.
