2016-03-10 - Conversion of Odell 377 (1901) from tubular-pneumatic to electro-pneumatic action -Database Manager
2019-12-17 - From the NYC AGO NYC Organ Project: In 1962, J.H. & C.S. Odell rebuilt their 1901 organ, eliminating all tubular action in the wind chests and the console key and coupler action, and replacing it with their modern all-electric action. The Odell Factory Specification (June 15, 1962) states that "The agreement does not provide for any general repair work for the wind chests, or changes in the stonal structure or character of the organ. These sections of the organ are in good operating condition at the present time." Odell indicated that the organ would be completed shortly after the new year, and before Easter 1963. The cost of this rebuilding was $5,950. After serving the church well for nearly a century, water damage rendered the organ unplayable. In 2000, the organ was removed to faciliate repairs of the organ chamber roof. The church was unable to fund the restoration of the Odell, so the organ was purchased by Meloni & Farrier Organbuilders and is currently in storage. All that remain today are the facade pipes. -Database Manager
