Database Manager on April 23, 2018:

An order was placed for a new German organ in 1914, but the order was cancelled due to 'incidents of war.' Op. 650 was dedicated on May 3, 1916, by T. Tertius Noble. The organ was rebuilt with tonal changes and a new console in 1958 as Casavant Op. 2460; more tonal changes were made in in 1978 and 1998-99; the church closed on May 1, 2016.
