St. Mary’s Convent in Washington, DC
This historical convent weighed 715 tons! We moved the structure in winter of 2009.

Mulberry Farmhouse in Easton, MD
This historic farmhouse was moved to avoid being torn down to make way for commercial development in March of 2009. The building was moved a half mile to its new home and weighed in at 425 tons.

Block Island Lighthouse in Rhode Island
The Southeast Lighthouse on Block Island is located 15 miles off the coast of Rhode Island. Built in 1873 and weighing in at over 2000 tons, this combination house and lighthouse was moved 300 feet back off the threatening seawall.

Because of its magnitude, the total job was laid out step-by-step with CAD drawings. These design drawings located where each item of steel beam, blocking, and equipment was to be placed.

After intricately placing the steel beams, the structure was raised with 38 60-ton jacks. Once raised, it was placed on caterpillar-type rollers and supported by floating hydraulic jacks. Its direction had to be changed — while moving — three different times before reaching its final resting place.

Bonnie Brae Mansion in Durham, North Carolina
The Bonnie Brae Mansion was relocated to make room for commercial expansion. The 10,000 square foot structure was part of an historic tobacco plantation. It weighed approximately 500 tons and included 5 full fireplaces. We moved it intact, a distance of two miles to it’s new location.

Rhineland, Missouri
The town of Rhineland, Missouri, devastated by the 1993 flood, was the first federally-funded town in national history to be relocated out of the flood plain. We moved every house in town to a new site, one-half mile uphill from their original locations. We later did the same for several houses in Pattonsburg, MO.
