2021-05-04 - The Hook was installed in the rear gallery, and replaced in 1891 by a completely new 3-manual Johnson & Son, Opus 765), installed inside the widened Hook case and moved to the front of the church in a specially-constructed apse chamber, but if he reused the Hook facade, the pipes would have required lowering in pitch. It cannot now be determined if Johnson reused the Hook facade pipes or replaced them with new. What became of the Hook is unknown. The Johnson was electrified by the Hall Organ Co. in 1928 without tonal change, and relocated in 1968 when it was replaced by a new 3-manual Berkshire, reusing the historic Hook case and extant facade pipes. In 1980, consultant E.A. Kelley convinced the church the facade pipes were too large in scale and he replaced them with new narrower-scale zinc pipes placed further apart. Broadway Congregational merged with Second Congregational in 1918, and the new congregation was now called United Congregational. -Scot Huntington
