I did see other media website releases about this organ...http://www.artsjournal.com/artsjournal1/2010/06/royal_festival_2.shtml (http://www.artsjournal.com/artsjournal1/2010/06/royal_festival_2.shtml)
along withhttp://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2010/sep/20/festival-hall-organ-sponsors-refurbishment (http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2010/sep/20/festival-hall-organ-sponsors-refurbishment)
and it is not the only one being reinstalled
in a recently renovated concert hall.

Several media website reports have turned up about Lincoln Center in New York City and its organ... including this one...
