Notes

2023-08-03 - This entry represents the installation of a new organ. Identified through online information from Jane Namenye, and verified from the Wicks opus list. The Egyptian style building at 6901 Delmar, University City, Missouri was originally built in 1925 by University Masonic Lodge. In 1935, it changed hands to Anchor Masonic Lodge which added the organ in 1937. The building is no longer a Masonic Temple and has had several owners since 1977. The organ was sold in 1991 and was last seen in 2005 in Calvert City, Kentucky. -Jim Stettner
