Organ from Paramount Theater is One Step Closer to Restoration
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa - The 2008 flood severely damaged the historical organ in Cedar Rapids.
On Friday, another organ that will be used to restore the damaged one arrived in Eastern Iowa. The more than 100-year-old model is from Brooklyn. Now, the old organ's keys and parts will go on the Brooklyn organ's body. Both organs were actually manufactured by the same factory and crafted by the same artisans. Both the city and organ society hope to have the theater and organ restored by 2012. More Good Stuff |
