This organ is unique in that the design was a collaboration between Lutheran organ designer Paul Bunjes and Lawrence Phelps. The balcony was added to accomodate the organ; the Great organ is on the balcony rail in the usual "Rückpositiv" location behind the organ console. The pedal division is located both on top and to the sides of the expressive Chor division of the main case against the back wall. This was the last Phelps instrument to be built.
