Anyone know how many Tabernacles the church owns? Are they a thing of the past?

Besides Salt Lake I knew of ones in Ogden,Provo and Brigham City.

According to Wikipedia, there are was 79 tabernacles in Utah alone, but it doesn't say how many are left.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabernacle_(LDS_Church)

My parents were born and raised in American Fork, UT and there was a tabernacle on Main street for many years. I was in it as recently as the mid 80's for the baptism of a niece and I recall going there to a funeral, but don't remember whose it was. That would have been in the 70's I think.

I think that the tabernacle in Vernal, UT was repurposed and converted to the Vernal Temple, but I don't want to do to much searching for LDS stuff. I think that's like a virus you can get in your system!!

I believe there once was one in Rexburg but it was sold to the city. It was too old and needed much repair to pass code. I don't know if it was repaired or torn down.

St. George still has a tabernacle with an "all seeing eye" that looks at you from up behind the speaker.
