Chance to Play Water Pipes, Metal Beams Downtown
by Jenna Flanagan
Byrne is retrofitting an antique organ so that it "plays" the building's metal beams, electrical conduits and water pipes.
Byrne says visitors will get a chance to play it.
BYRNE: The public plays it, the public gets involved in it. Whether it's kids or adults or whoever. No one is better at doing it or playing it than anyone else.
REPORTER: The interactive exhibit at the Great Hall of the Battery Maritime Building is free and will be open to the public at the end of the month on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.
