The Harrison New York Temple is the 129th announced temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The announcement to build a Mormon temple in Harrison, New York came in September 1995. The site chosen for the temple is located on the corner of Kenilworth Road and Westchester Avenue on 24 wooded acres. The Harrison Temple will be the third temple in the state of New York, the other two being in Palmyra and Manhattan. The Mormon "Church is waiting for the right time to build. That directive will come from the president of the Church [Gordon B. Hinckley]."
