Notes

2006-06-18 - Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- The organ is installed on a ledge at the front of the room in the right corner. The swellbox is nestled in the corner with portions of the Pedal and Great exposed as an asymmetrical, functional façade. The Great has a fully prepared-for 8' Trompette. The Swell has a fully prepared-for 1-1/3' Quint Flöte. The Pedal 8' Bourdon is from the 16' Subbass, but no extension pipes were provided despite the windchest being present, winded and wired, so it only plays for 20 notes. The congregation disbanded and the church was closed by the Seattle Presbytery, later reopening as Seattle Community Church (Presbyterian), now a largely Asian church. -Database Manager
