The church, now known as Eastminster Presbyterian Church, is located almost in the shadow of the towering East Liberty Presbyterian Church in a not-so-pleasant section of Pittsburgh.  Eastminster now only has around 200 members.  Its nave looks quite a bit like that of Third Presbyterian Church, which is located in the affluent Shadyside area of Pittsburgh; it also has only 200 members, but has a IV/123 Moller.
 
The Eastminster nave has a pretty dry acoustic.  The organ, which replaced 4-manual 1925 Austin Op. 1755, is located in a chamber across the front wall of the nave; the intricate but fairly open grillwork in front of it looks like it may have had pipes in it at one time.
