Updated through online information from John Igoe. -- Note from Barbara Owen 7/28/2014: Eighth Methodist Church (also known as Tremont St. Methodist), was merged with another Methodist Church about 40 years ago. The building was sold to New Hope Baptist. The building (which will retain its exterior appearance) was sold later to a developer to convert to condos, and Dave Moore and his crew got the organ out just weeks before the developer moved in. It will be installed in Hammond Street Congregational Church Bangor, ME, where it will occupy the case of Hook #159, formerly at that site.
