Moving Day
Everybody all together now - “…our house…in the middle of the street…our house…”
You know, when most folks move, they just take their possessions to a new place; but apparently some people just have to be different.
Ok, I’m kidding. This was actually an old historic home in Bloomington, Illinois that was relocated last year. Dubbed the Mandel-Cohn house, it’s a Queen Anne style that was built in 1894. A church had brought the property, donated the building itself to the local Old House Society who then sold it to the new owners who moved it.
I came across the photo at The Cellar’s Image of the Day site and ironically, the new owner of the house actually made some comments on the post talking about the move. If you scroll down near the bottom of the page, look for a couple of comments from ‘dp73‘. Check it out here.
