2014-12-15 - Updated through online information from Michael Gould. -- The organ has been in disrepair since the mid-1980s. All is intact but a construction project severed the cable linking the console and chests. There is noticeable damage to the console, too. The music rack is missing uppermost portion/segment. The ivories and stop tabs are yellowed indicating that the cover has been mostly shut. It is my belief that the organ could be made playable with little effort. I have played the instrument and is a sweet-sounding organ - Aeolian-Skinner's smallest church installation, I believe. -Database Manager
