A partial restoration of the Nauvoo Temple, to be built on the original Illinois temple site, is projected by the Nauvoo Restoration, Incorporated (NRI). The original temple, built about 122 years ago, was located at Nauvoo, Illinois, where the Church was headquartered from 1839-1846 on a large bend of the Mississippi River. NRI is a non-profit corporation sponsored by the Church for the development of part of the old city of Nauvoo. Dr. LeRoy Kimball serves as president and chairman of the board by appointment of the First Presidency. [From text]
