2007-10-20 - Identified by James R. Stettner through information from the Estey Opus List, published in The Boston Organ Club newsletter, 1973-1979. -Database Manager
2015-05-30 - Updated through online information from Philip Fillion. -- The building was purchased by Wheaton Bible Church (then located across the street), which used it as a youth center. At some point the organ was removed and the auditorium stripped of its furnishings. Then WBC was in turn purchased by St. John Lutheran Church, my congregation. By the time I arrived in 2011, the Christian Science building was in grave disrepair after years of disuse. The organ chambers are completely empty and no sign of the instrument remains. The building will be demolished when funds are available. -Database Manager
