Updated by William E. Catanesye, who gave this as the source of the information: Brief inspection of organ chamber on 6/9/2019.
Organ is unplayable at this time. Brief inspection of the organ chamber (Choir and Great) revealed that the organ is mostly intact but has sustained some damage to pipes in addition to a great deal of dust and debris in the chamber. One rank of pipes missing in the Choir division was evident but unknown which stop that is. Console was not viewed at this time but supposedly still exists under the main stage.
Updated through online information from Ian Wiese.
Though not completely destroyed, organ is mostly damaged beyond use to the point of being destroyed. Blower has been completely removed and large sections of stops have been walled off to change organ loft into storage.
