Jim Stettner on July 30th, 2025:

This entry represents rebuilding and tonal changes to the existing 1947 Casavant. Identified through online information from Nils Halker (July 30, 2025).

The two Swell shoes are both for the Swell box, it has two openings -- one facing the nave and one facing the choir stalls. The Choir Division is non-existent except for the keyboard.
