DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
Updated through online information from Sean Haley. In addition to the additions and electrical system added by Frans Bosman, new unit chests of electro-mechanical design were built and installed by Bosman for the Great and Swell. Interestingly, the Swell expression remains completely mechanical in nearly the original configuration as executed by Kimball.

Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- This was a major rebuild with tonal additions of the existing 1908 W. W. Kimball organ which had been previously electrified and rebuilt/enlarged. The façade pipes were stencilled during this rebuild. An entirely new solid state electric system was installed. Some new or used/recycled ranks were added. The organ was dedicated in worship on OCtober 6, 1991.
