DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
At some time after the complete restoration of the actions the church apparently contracted with a Pittsburgh firm to add digital voices and replace the console. The church left the Episcopal Church communion and joined the breakaway Anglican Church in North America and is since known as St. Peter's Anglican Church.

Updated through online information from paul marchesano. -- Austin mechanism restored 2005-2009: actions releathered, pipework cleaned, regulated, stoppers repacked. Console awaits renovation. Swell Trumpet, Posaune, Oboe and Great 8' Diapason replaced with supply house pipework in 1990s. Groos Flute removed from great at that time. Most of the original Oboe rank was found in the organ loft and awaits restoration and return to the Swell division.
