In 1929, Clarence E. Morey of Utica, N.Y., rebuilt the organ (as his opus 397) with electro-pneumatic action. Morey also provided a new three-manual console with color-coded stopkeys: flue stops were white; reeds were brown; tremulants were red; and couplers were black. At this time, Morey combined the divided Swell 16' Bourdon into one stop tablet. The combination action is controlled by a setterboard concealed in the case directly behind the organist's back.
The rebuilt organ was dedicated by T. Tertius Noble, organist of St. Thomas Church, Manhattan, on January 23, 1930.
