Potential Architectural Turning job

[-e-]

It took Phil over 10 years to accomplish moving this house from Napa to Benicia, but what a ride!!!!

A decade ago Phil discovered and fell in love with this old farm house in Napa, CA. It has taken all this time to orchestrate its relocation.

Luckily, Phil is a professional house-mover. This video chronicles the house's journey to its new location in Benicia. It has one more move to make, to the corner of the waterfront, but for now i can enjoy my coffee-break sitting next to the ole' girl!

That was really cool. I've seen a lot of houses moved but not by barge. Good photo essay.

Brought tears to my eyes. Simply beautiful documentation of a journey through ones lifetime, metaphorically speaking, at least for me. Quite touching wonderfully edited and presented. Marvelous acheivement.

Nice to see another old house saved. I would have loved to be waiting for the bridge when it went by, what a sight!
