Notes

2008-08-20 - Identified through on-line information from Jeff Scofield. -- An unusual contemporary building with a vast sea of 2,500 padded theater-style seats all on one level. The Great and Pedal are exposed with dramatic lighting as a breakfront between the main auditorium and a large semi-circular room behind with tall stained-glass windows. A 10-stop Solo division is prepared-for. -Database Manager
