2020-11-26 - From the NYC AGO NYC Organ Project: A new two-manual organ was built in 1948 by the Kilgen Organ Company of St. Louis, Missouri. On June 21, 1948, The New York Times reported: "A Kilgen pipe organ donated to the Kings Highway Methodist Church at East Thirty-seventh Street, Brooklyn, by Dr. Payne P. Larsen in memory of his wife, Mrs. Marguerite Richardson Larsen, was dedicated yesterday afternoon. A bronze plaque in honor of Mrs. Larsen, who taught at Brooklyn Technical High School, also was unveiled. Dr. Arch Tremayne is pastor of the church and Clifford Troxell is organist." -Jeff Scofield
