BOTH my grandparents homes were relocated to where they are now in the 50's and 70's. My grandpa was telling me how when he moved his house in the 50's, it was just some other young guy with a truck, and my grandpa rode on the roof of the house and lifted telephone lines up as the house went under. Even though they only moved it a few miles, it took two days, and they just left it parked in the middle of some bridge that used to be at 44th and Ward. They had to jack the house up on its side to get it over the sides of the bridge. My grandpa also cut down someone's mail box, then went back that night and welded it back together for him.
