A specialized mechanism moved a two-storey "Victoria" house from its original location to a new location, 139 years after its address at "807 - Franklin Street" in San Francisco, USA.



The green house with large windows and the brown front door, along with its foundation, was loaded into a specialized wagon, and was transported to a new location, six streets away from its old site, where spectators lined the sidewalks to take pictures of the event, as the house moved, at a maximum speed of 1 Mph, to the new address, "635 - Fulton Street."
