After the parking lot’s tight bends, the house turned on Valley Street and headed towards its final destination.

Moving down Valley Street to its future home just beyond the blue house on the right, the former 400 Blake Street began to fit into its new surroundings.

The movers backed the house into a hole that would eventually become the cellar.  With the ground frozen, the heavy load did not create the anticipated muddy mess.

Finally at its new home, 115 Valley Street was set into position.  From this view it would rise no more than two feet.
