Database Manager on October 20th, 2014: 
Updated through information from Armando Alejandro Jr. -- Relocated and modified by Ballard Organ Co. to Our Lady of the Atonement, San Antonio, Texas.

Database Manager on April 17th, 2012: 
Updated through online information from D. Kirkpatrick.  -- According to a newspaper article dated April 13, 2012, the organ (apparently mislabeled in the news clip) was purchased by the First Baptist Church of Jamaica Plain (a community in Boston, MA) and placed in storage until it could be installed, replacing an organ lost in the Baptist church's fire in 2005.  The developer of the former Blessed Sacrament Church is seeking the immediate removal of the organ "in storage" (on site still in pieces??)    My interest... I enjoy Classical and Theatre organ music and instruments.  This article just popped up in my news clipping services. Apparently available to the right party at the right price if the First Baptist Church is unable to proceed
