From what I've been hearing over the past year or more, the organ pavilion project is almost dead. A bond issue to funding the biggest piece of it was defeated (the catch-all bond contained numerous projects) and some of the Bay Area's most prominent organists are not in favor of the pavilion. San Diego's Spreckels Organ Pavilion notwithstanding, organs are meant to in enclosed spaces designed for them or vice versa. In addition, our climate would be very harsh for the historic Austin organ.
