Updated through online information from steve bartley. -- In the early 1960s the rear of the organ chamber was sliced off as part of a building project. A school building for the congregation was added to the building complex. The original Niemann organ provided a very small space for a few singers and the Greek congregation desired a larger space for a full choir. These two conditions, smaller chamber and larger choir space necessitated a smaller organ. Lewis & Hitchcock was hired to provide a smaller organ for the available space.
11 ranks of the Niemann organ were used plus a new reed. The unified Great 8 open diapason was provided 12 bass pipes from the old 16 double Open Diapson to provide a 16 open in the pedal, and the Stopped Diapason was provided 12 bass pipes from the original Swell 16 Bourdon to allow it to also play at the 16 pitch

Updated through on-line information from David M Storey. -- Most of the ranks in the present organ are from the Niemann. The organ is all on electro-pneumatic unit chests; there is extensive revoicing. Virtually nothing of the original organ remains but a few ranks of pipes.
