If you don’t like where your house stands, well, jack it up, and move it! These homeowners have decided to find a new location for their home. It is indeed easy to move traditional American houses because they are mostly built with wood material. This one doesn’t go very far, only 50 yards away, but sometimes they travel through the streets.
Si vous n’aimez pas où l'endroit se trouve votre maison, eh bien, soulevez la sur des vérins et déplacez la. Ces propriétaires ont décidé de trouver un nouvel emplacement pour leur maison. Il est facile, en effet, de déplacer les maisons américaines traditionnelles car elles sont pour la majorité construites en bois. Celle-ci n’ira pas très loin, seulement à 50 mètres, mais parfois les maisons sont transportées d’un bout à l’autre de la ville.

That is truely amazing and - to my knowledge - does not exist in Europe. All our houses have foundations which make them impossible to move like this.
Occasionnaly, when buildings need to be moved to another location they have to it aport, brick by brick, and rebuild it again.
Most of our homes in California are also built on cement slabs making it extremely difficult to move. It also makes it extremely difficult for earthquakes to move them.
This gives a whole other meaning to "mobile home"!
Hi Eric, Hi tanty
yes, it's amazing, but even more impressive to see an entire house on wheels traveling on the streets through the city.
Hello Orange,
...extremely difficult to move, but at least, safer :-)
Exactly Michael, you got the point ;-)
I've seen houses being moved, but usually they cut them in half and they then travel inconvoy - would be a great picture, cos then you can see INSIDE the cut-in-half house!
I love seeing stuff like houses travelling down the street on a big truck, often completely chopped in half. It's almost amusing! Thanks.
I had been told of houses being moved when I visited New England but seeing it is something else again. Brilliant catch !
