Database Manager on April 3rd, 2009:

Church sanctuary substantially enlarged in 1959. Wind pressure raised and 2 ranks added, one of which - the Pedal 16' Violone - became the facade.


Database Manager on November 24th, 2008:

Updated through information from Stephen Wayand Folkers: -- The console from this organ was rebuilt and installed in St. Lambert RC Church, Skokie, Illinois in 2004. Either this organ no longer exists (having been parted out), or it has a new console.


Database Manager on November 13th, 2008:

Identified from factory documents and publications courtesy of Stephen Schnurr. Sold to another location and replaced in Glenview by Buzard.
