2016-03-16 - The hospital declared bankruptcy on May 17, 1931. The building was acquired by the International Committee of the Young Men's Christian Association, who sold it in July 1945 to the Greenwich House Music School. After St. Mark's Hospital declared bankruptcy, the organ was moved by Möller in 1933 (as Op. 6216) to First Presbyterian Church, Jamaica, where it was installed with "very few changes." -Database Manager
