Notes

2007-05-28 - Identified through online information from Stanley R. Scheer. -- The Great, Swell and Pedal divisions are located in chambers at the front of the nave. The Gallery division is located in the rear gallery along with a duplicate console bearing Opus Number 2513. In several places in the contract the Gallery division is alternatively referred to as the Choir division, including the following, "The Gallery (or Choir) division to be located in the gallery." The gallery division is in a center chamber in front of the rear gallery window, with no visible pipes. The main organ is located in forward-facing chambers to each side of the altar/pulpit area. The choir and front console are located in the left transept. -Database Manager
