Notes

2016-06-23 - An original installation. Identified by Steve Bartley, using information found in the Lewis & Hitchcock files. Organ was original when the building was new (1902) or soon after. Lewis & Hitchcock service files provide a specification and mention that prior to the file (1935) the organ was rebuilt by the Delosh Brothers of New York. Sometime in the late 20th century an electronic organ was installed, though Flickr photos taken in recent years show the divided case, in the balcony, to be intact. -Database Manager

2024-07-27 - The organ was replaced around the mid-1960's by a two-manual Allen analog organ. The organ's speakers were installed behind the facades on abandoned wind chests. By the mid-2000's, the forty year old Allen was replaced by a three-manual Rodgers Trillium Masterpiece series instrunent. -Mark Hurley
