Database Manager on September 20th, 2012:
Updated through online information from Rodney J. Weed. -- This organ has been rebuilt again by Schantz Organ Company.

Database Manager on October 24th, 2011:
The organ was originally built by W. W. Kimball in the late 1890's for the Studebaker Theater in Chicago. Kimball moved it to this location in 1904 or 1908. Kilgen rebuilt the organ with a new four-manual console. Further repairs were completed in 1996 by J. Wiesrock, Parish Organist. Schantz Organ Company completely rebuilt and expanded the organ in 2010 while retaining much of the Kimball and Kilgen pipework.
