All wind-chests were replaced with non-leathered electric-slider actions. John-Paul Buzard Pipe Organ Builders were chosen to take on the project. These musical challenges, along with difficulties in the electrical system, and decay of leathers necessitated a thorough repair, rebuilding, and re-organization of the instrument. The combination of new and old pipes of differing musical styles and eras resulted in a lack of cohesion and balance. During the 1980's, the Austin Company rebuilt and altered the organ, adding new Principal Choruses and Reeds to the Great and Pedal Divisions, as well as changing out most of the Swell Division pipes to neo-Baroque/Germanic ranks. The Great, Choir and remaining Pedal stops were located in a chamber to the upper right of the Altar and Chancel. The Swell division, with some Pedal stops, was placed in the historic balcony case. An Austin organ was installed in 1924 (Opus 1224). The original encased mechanical action organ (from an unknown builder) still exists at the center/rear balcony, on the long axis of the room. The choir sits in a "wrap-around" three sided balcony. Mark's Church is a recently and elegantly restored 1888 Victorian Gothic building.
