2023-03-30 - From the NYC AGO NYC Organ Project, Steven E. Lawson: St. Ambrose Roman Catholic Church, founded in 1897, occupied a four-story brick complex on West 54th Street designed by John T. Van Pelt in 1911 that included a church, school and rectory. St. Ambrose Church disbanded in 1938, and the complex became Centro María, a residence run by the Sisters of Mary Immaculate that provides care and a home to women from different countries that come to work or to study in New York. The original organ in St. Ambrose Church was built in 1912 by the Estey Organ Company. Estey provided bronzed front pipes and a console at the C-sharp end of the case. The entire organ was voiced on 5" wind pressure. About 1948, the Estey organ was replaced by Austin Organ, Op. 75 (1903), moved from Christ Church (Episcopal) in Staten Island. -Jeff Scofield
