DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
Replaced in 1964 by 3/64 Casavant Op. 2802; the church and organ were destroyed by fire on January 15, 1972.
Paul R. Marchesano on August 30th, 2021:
Further expansion of the church was considered as early as 1912 and two adjoining pieces of property were purchased. In 1918, the church, with its interior completely rebuilt and a departmentalized Sunday School building added, was again rededicated as a memorial to peace, the exterior now faced in gray limestone." -- from "Short History of LABC" accessed 2021-08-30
This organ is surely a rebuild and enlargement of the previous Hook & Hastings Opus 1956 from 1902.
Database Manager on March 1st, 2005:
Identified from company publications as edited and expanded in The Hook Opus List 1829-1935, ed. William T. Van Pelt (Organ Historical Society, 1991).
