Vedic temple update: 3D pictures now ready!
A lot has happened since the last update. We have been keeping very busy and are excited to share the 3-D pictures rendered by our architects below. We also have an approved loan and are now in the final phase of working with the city and county.
The fundraising initiative has begun with a goal of raising $4 million in 3 years. So far $300,000 in pledges have been raised and we encourage everyone to help in this once in a life time opportunity to build a Krishna temple in the heart of Naperville. For further inquiries, please contact us at [email protected].

Plan approved by the city!
We are excited to announce that the city council has fully approved our rezoning application on Tuesday, July 19th. We are now moving on in to the next frontier of this project. Stay tuned for the next update!
Vedic temple plan submitted to the city!
As mentioned in our previous communication, the ISKCON Naperville team began the process of planning for rezoning a few months ago which required the completion of quite a bit of civil engineering and other paperwork. We are now happy to inform you that the rezoning paper work has been completed and submitted! We will be sending you periodic updates on the outcome as and when they become available.
Parallel to completion and submission of the rezoning papers, our team of architects and engineers have been collaborating with a group of experienced temple architects who are expert in temple architecture, Vedic embellishments, the science of Vedic vastu, etc. Together they have been working on producing both internal layout diagrams as well as beautiful external 3D renderings, both of which we will be sharing with you very soon! Please wait to hear back from us soon with exciting new updates!
