Great and Swell divisions have rebuilt Roosevelt-style (Farrand & Votey?) ventil chests, possibly pre-dating the 1906 installation. The Choir division has a Blackington-style slider chest (new, from OSI).

Updated through online information from Stephen Hall. -- According to the church's website, the original organ was built in 1906 by George Kilgen and Sons, some changes made but it was still considered to be a Kilgen organ by the church in 2009. The church planned to use parts from the Salt Lake Masonic Temple (Kimball organ with Austin additions) to enlarge the organ but staying in the style of the period.
Database Manager on June 9th, 2009:
Identified through information from Rebecda Buxton: -- A hybrid instrument incorporating the existing pipe organ.
