Great article. Nice save.

"They found they could buy and move a house for about the same price as building a new one."

I caught pieces of 2 episodes of Mega Movers on the History Channel. If you get the chance, check it out.

Hi Bill,

Yeah, I've been watching it every week. I've been visiting the Nickel Brothers site for years hoping to spot one of their houses for sale that will be the right price and the right size for a project I've got in mind. Check 'em out at http://www.nickelbros.com

OT - OF!!!

I love Mega-Movers. Great show.

Wouldn't you love doing moving stuff like that?

In Leesburg, VA we built the foundations under a relocated train station, huge mill and several other buildings which all became a downtown shopping and restaurant attraction called Market Station. It was fascinating watching it all come together and a bit freaky working under all of those temporarily supported buildings. The mill, which is now Tuskarora Mill restaurant, required a lot of co-operation. All utility lines had to be taken down in the middle of the night.
