A 139-year-old house in San Francisco was moved to a new address over the weekend. The green Victorian home known as the “Englander House” was lifted up on to giant dollies and put on wheels when it was moved from 807 Franklin Street to 635 Fulton Street in San Francisco’s Hayes Valley neighborhood on Sunday, according to the Associated Press.
San Francisco broker Tim Brown, the owner of the house, paid about $400,000 to have the home moved, a plan that’s been in the works for years, the San Francisco Chronicle reported. The moving process not only included putting the house on dollies, but also included removing streetlights, parking meters, tree branches, and utility lines as well as blocking off roads.
