It is not known where Wicks got the name 'Palestrina Hall' as shown in the promotional photo. According to a June 26, 2019 email from Cathedral organist Donald Fellows [edited], "The Wicks designed by Rev. Carlo Rossini is in its original location above the stage of Synod Hall which is an adjacent building to the Cathedral. Synod Hall was run by another diocesan agency and the organ sat silent for decades. In the year 2001 Synod Hall was given to St. Paul Cathedral by the diocese. The organ console was located in a pit in front of the stage. Other components of the organ are located under the stage. Both the pit and stage are at the lowest point of the building. Water managed to flood this building filling the pit and working its way under the stage. Many components were destroyed. Allegheny Organs (who removed the water-damaged chapel Moller organ) replaced
the Synod Hall console by rebuilding the Moller console and fitted it to the Synod Hall Wicks, along with additional components such as blower, rectifier, relays, etc. The organ case appears as it does in the photo, however, it is mounted high above the stage, not on the stage floor as it appears in the photo. That portion of the instrument awaits rehabilitation. The instrument is minimally playable. To my knowledge, the term 'Palestrina Hall' was never used - all parties involved simply refer to its as 'Synod Hall'."

This entry describes an original installation of a new pipe organ.
