This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location

Database Manager on February 18th, 2017:
Updated by Bill Geraci, who has heard or played the organ. <br>A wonderful sound! Approx. 0.75 seconds decay. Bond is next to the Divinity School but Bond is managed by Rockefeller Chapel.
Database Manager on January 22nd, 2013:
Organ relocated without any change. Identified by Bill Geraci, based on personal knowledge of the organ. -- The University of Chicago bought the building which housed the Chicago Theological Seminary and, with it, the Reneker Family organ. The existing building will now house the Department of Economics so the organ has been moved and installed into Bond Chapel of the U of C Divinity School. The (re) dedicatory concert will be 2013-02-02.
