This is the house to be moved tomorrow morning. It once belonged to a wealthy family, but was later converted to a funeral home, then to an antiques shop. The interior was occasionally used for weddings and such.

When we found out that the house was to be demolished so that a senior citiizens nursing home could be built on the property, we located a buyer who would be willing to move it several blocks away to a new location.

It happens that the new location is across the street from our house. It should improve the value of all the homes in the area.

Anyway, a group got together and raised about half of the $500,000 it would take to move the house, making it manageable for the new owner to make a go of it.

This image is taken from the rear of the property where the house will be moved across Otis Street on its two-block journey.
