Notes
2006-04-15 - Identified through information adapted from <i>E. M. Skinner/Aeolian-Skinner Opus List</i>, by Sand Lawn and Allen Kinzey (Organ Historical Society, 1997), and included here through the kind permission of Sand Lawn: <br><i> Relocation and installation of #648 with player removed.</i> -Database Manager
2007-11-10 - Duplex stoplist typical of many small Skinner organs with players. The organ is still in place, with the two chambers installed behind the Roosevelt facade pipes. The Skinner console is placed where the Roosevelt keydesk was originally, extending behind the Roosevelt facade only slightly. Unfortunately, the organ has mechanical problems owing to deteriorating leather and is barely playable. -Database Manager
2023-11-11 - The building is still used for special services and High Holy Days and is in excellent condition. -Jeff Scofield
