Opus 763, 1874

The church was closed within the past few years, and the building sold to become condos. No one bothered to think about the organ. The project has cleared all hurdles and now only waits for the approval of parking permits-- and now people are concerned about this wonderful organ going to the dump. It 's now an emergency and needs a miracle.

Updated by Scot Huntington, who has heard or played the organ. When the original gallery was extended out to gain more seating space for the choir, the console was brought forward with it, and since the new gallery had multiple floor levels, the console was dropped one level, necessitating and two additional sets of squares to get the key action from console level up to the level of the original action trace. The resulting key action from this turn-of-the-century intervention is remarkably heavy, and coupled is unplayable. There is no choir here now, and the organ sits unused with no plans for a renovation or to raise the console up to its original floor level in order to abolish the intermediary squares.

On-line update from Eric Anderson -- Extant, original, but in poor condition and unused. Electronic currently in use.
