Built by: Casavant Frères (1963) - opus 2750
Saint Paul's Roman Catholic Church in Springfield, Massachusetts, was built in the years 1960-1962. In 1963 a three-manual pipe organ was dedicated, built as their opus 2750 by Casavant Frères. Around 2005 the church was almost closed, due to the declining church visit, but the start of a new Vietnamese congregation - later to be joined with a Korean congregation - saved the building from demolition.
