Moving Was Easy Part NEW LOCATION-Eden and Jacobs Streets house move

A two story brick house was raised on jacks and moved from its site to a vacant lot at Eden and Jacobs Streets Thursday. Holley House Moving Co. crews began lifting in December, inserted large trailers, and a converted Army truck carried the house as power lines were removed. Workers checked clearance to avoid hitting parked cars and will set the house on a new foundation and build a basement later. Logan Federal Savings and Loan Association owns the transplanted structure and will decide its fate.
