This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
The main organ was originally a Hope-Jones that was rebuilt and enlarged to twice its original size in 1924 by Harry Oliver Iverson of Minneapolis; the Antiphonal was made up of stops from the Steere organ that came from the old building, except for the new Trompette.
