From church website:
The decorated organ pipes in the rear of the chancel (choir loft) behind the pulpit date back to 1892. In that year they were installed when the church received the gift of a new organ from a congregation member.
The main organ is located behind the 1890's facade. Although these facade pipes actually played when the first organ was installed here, they were pitched at different levels, not unusual in those days.
This organ was constructed over a period of two years. Here the builder, Lawrence Nevin, is installing pipes in the swell division. Notice the empty holes in the foreground? These are the holes in the windchest, mentioned in the console photo caption. A pipe will soon fill each one of the holes when it is "voiced" to blend with its neighboring pipes.
