Notes

2024-07-26 - This Robert Morton Organ was originally built for the Odeon Theatre, formerly located at 58 Clinton Street, Manhattan. Presumably sold to the Julius Hartt School of Music (formerly located in Hartford, Connecticut; 222 Collins St.) following theater's closure circa 1931. Was moved to Hartt School in 1931, according to Greg Rister's Robert Morton Organ site and New York City AGO. Current location of organ unknown. The Hartt School moved to 187 Broad St. (Hartford) in 1938, then 200 Bloomfield Ave. (West Hartford) in 1963. -Bob Lazar
