A historic home was rolled through the hilly streets of San Francisco to its new location after 139 years at the same address.
The Victorian mansion was loaded onto huge transport trucks and slowly moved at a top speed of a mile an hour to a new address six blocks away.
Crowds of onlookers lined the streets to watch the procession, which reportedly took years of planning to be cleared by authorities.
Relocation worker Phil Joy told the San Francisco Chronicle that he would need to get permits from 15 city authorities before accepting the job.
Mr Joy said the route was challenging as the first part was downhill.
“It’s always difficult for a house,” he told the newspaper.
Before the move, parking meters and traffic signs could be passed and relocated and branches cut back.
The owner of the six-bedroom home had to pay $ 400.00 in permit fees and relocation costs, the Chronicle reported.
