Database Manager on December 6th, 2019:
For their new building on Park Avenue and 39th Street, the church engaged Henry Erben & Co. of New York City to build a new organ. The three-manual organ was installed in a Gothic case of black walnut, measuring 15 by 30 feet and 47 feet high, of which the center section came down to within 15 feet of the choir floor in order to show the large circular stained glass window in the rear.
