DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
According to the church's website - on the About the Pipe Organ page, "In 1929, Hook and Hastings was contracted to rebuild and enlarge the organ, adding the pedal organ (played with the feet) and the choir division. The organ was also changed from tracker action to electric action. A new three manual console was also added. A new electric wind turbine was installed which is still in service today. Hook and Hastings ledger book lists the addition to Broadway’s organ as opus #2571, bringing the organ up to 1,306 pipes."
The center portion of the case is the original 1880 E. & G.G. Hook & Hastings case.
