Notes
2007-03-19 - Identified through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- The main organ is located in a smallish chamber to the left of the choir. The Antiphonal is locate in a center chamber high on the rear wall over the entry. The carpeting and porous brick soak up a lot of sound. -Database Manager
2016-12-21 - Updated through online information from Timothy Powell. <br>Antiphonal organ case is to the left when facing towards the rear of the sanctuary. The center higher opening is a control room. -Database Manager
