McKim Mansion's Hook & Hastings to be moved!!
Here is a photojournal of the McKim Hook & Hastings as it is being dismantled
by organ builder David Story for restoration and relocation to its new home at the
Universalist National Memorial Church at 1810 16th Street, NW, Washington, DC. Congratulations
to the UNMC for for their part in preserving this bit of Washington's heritage. It
will grace their church and worship services for years to come!

Ready to remove the great tower pipes!
The 10 tallest tower pipes are the bass of the Great 16' open. Not a very
large scale but still fairly heavy pipes.
Final stages before removal of the swell box
