DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
Updated through online information from James R. Stettner.
The organ had a 'luminous' console. That was replaced by Olympic Organ Builders at an unknown date before 1976. In 1976, Tacoma organ technician Homer R. Johnson made tonal changes to the organ. The chambers are along the ceiling in front. The Echo plays from the Great and is affected by the Great couplers.
