The beast is over the Nave entrance, though, which mucks up the sound a bit (unless you're up there with it). As befits te lat home of E. Power Biggs, Boston has a lot of good organs, although some of them are in strange locations. A traditional favorite is in the Busch-Reisinger (Germanic) Museum at Harvard; unfortunately I've never heard it in concert. Old South (Congregaional) Church has a fairly new Flentrop with the trumpets en chamade; almost as much fun as singing with a full orchestra.
