Jim Stettner on November 11th, 2022:
The organ was removed by Colby in Tennessee before the church building was razed. The organ is supposed to be rebuilt/reconfigured and installed in the new Church which is to be at the top of a new building to be built by the University of Washington. It remains to be seen if this will actually happen. The new sanctuary plans have already had height / space excised from the plans.

Database Manager on November 20th, 2018:
Identified through online information from Joe O'Donnell. -- Updated by Joe O'Donnell, the builder. <br> <br>In the summer of 2017 mechanical and electrical upgrades were performed by Bond Organ Builders, Inc. of Portland, Oregon. The Pedal and Positiv chambers were entirely emptied so repairs could be made to their walls and ceilings. The slider chests for these divisions were re-engineered and the pneumatic stop actions were replaced with electric slider motors. The console was fitted with new stop controls and the entire instrument is now controlled by a Syndyne 8400 system. While the specification has been revised, no tonal changes were made.
