Andover Organ Company, Lawrence, Massachusetts, has contracted to restore the 1906 Jesse Woodberry organ in St. Patrick Catholic Church, Lowell, Massachusetts. It is the largest organ of this builder, with three manuals, 56 ranks, and the largest surviving pipe organ in Lowell. The instrument has been unplayable for nearly a decade.
The project will be accomplished in three stages: console and Choir division, Swell, and Great and Pedal divisions, commencing in the spring of this year and continuing through early 2020. The church was designed by Patrick C. Keely.
