House Moving

A few pages back there were some great photos of houses being moved....and even an entire apartment building, in three sections, if I recall.

And a couple months ago a spectacular series about one of the early LA schools being moved. The mover ran out of money, and there the school sat, high on its stilts for a while before finally reaching its destination.

So.................

What ever happened to house moving? You NEVER hear of anything like this anymore. Least not around these parts.

I can only assume it must be a cost issue, considering any tractors and other vehicles one would need to do the moving are 10 times better than they were in, say, 1920. Plus a lot of utilities are underground.
