No. The truck driver wasn't the only hero. Every single person involved in that move was the hero. You must understand in an operation like that, you have multiple drivers. One is sitting behind the wheel, yes. But others have remote controls that control all those independently operated dollies. A team like this would be no less than a minimum of four licensed drivers.
@@Esrom_music They contribute NOTHING. Only suck tax dollars from us. IF they wanted help they would get it. I've asked on numerous occasions if they wanted food. No. Work. No. Only money for a .40oz of beer.
Thank you! I was wondering who completed this impressive move, and surprised absolutely none of the news articles mentioned the responsible contractor.
Hats off to Phil Joy House Movers and Scott House Movers who did this historic move + all the other public works folks. I was there at 8am and stayed will 10:30ish. It was a brilliant experience. The men who were there to set this up and then take it down these streets and turning about and more... it was just a once in a life time experience for me and others.
The movement to preserve historical buildings started after the demolition of the Fox Theater in San Francisco and the original Penn Station in New York City. Unfortunately, there had to be sacrificial lambs in order to start such movements.
@@RaymondHng Yup, but New York in 1968 got the New Madison Square Garden as a replacement, San Francisco got that gosh awful ugly civic center office complex
@@bartonpercival2147 The airspace above the station became Madison Square Garden. The replacement Penn Station under MSG is ugly. As architectural professor Vincent Scully once said: “Through Pennsylvania Station one entered the city like a god. Perhaps it was really too much. One scuttles in now like a rat.”
There a lot victorian houses in city, too much work to keep 1, but they removed Sea Cliff restaurant which only 1 on the sea cliff & they been there since 1879.
@@DUNGSI27 Yeah! I am very surprise how much China has changed and how fast grew! It is kinda scary and amazing! What surprised me the most was that China used 5 years times to alleviate 100M+ people out of poverty. Xi Jinping said, No one gets left behind, otherwise, China cannot move forward. Right now, they are going to use the next 5 years to help the people stabilize their growth, so they do not fall behind. Surprisingly Xinjiang has the largest growth in the last 5 years, but western medias always reported genocide, which I only saw happiness and joy everywhere unlike in the USA with all the homeless. In fact, one of the reported concentration camp is actually a vocation school to help the locals, so they do not fall back into poverty.
I used to pass by this house all the time which was abandoned, condemned surrounded by a bare lot looking haunted. I always dreamed that if I stuck it rich, I’d buy the lot and live inside.
do you realize every dollar spent by government comes from someone else? So unless you have provided for the homeless, you are really just whining with nothing to offer, and who has yet to offer anything to help the homeless crisis in the city. basically you are saying "hey look, that guy has enough money to do that, i think he should spend his money on the homeless crisis". the fact you think you have done any form of activism by making your snide remark, is the real crisis. if you want to fix homelessness, get up, work extra hard for some extra money, and share it with the people who need it. Yelling "Somebody, Do Something!" is not activism.
Reminds me of that Daniel Day Lewis movie, "There Will be blood" but there were workers/peasants dragging it - No Truck! One of my childhood homes in Berkeley was relocated this way. It is now apartments & a laundry mat.
Hurrah for the move!! And Hurrah for EVERYONE who kept their masks on! So impressed. I would say...only in the City..but..wow. the new owner will probably get dinged for all the signage they had to bring down too...

@@RealTalk532 Don't worry wealthy people have accountants and lawyers who know all the loopholes. Moving the historic property is probably a tax right off
@@Alexandra-xt1vf lol have you ever actually dealt with a lawyer or accountant in a professional setting??? I can always tell the people who have no idea what they are talking about, because its always rife with slogans like " Don't worry wealthy people have accountants and lawyers who know all the loopholes. Moving the historic property is probably a tax right off". Lol i feel like you just watched the office or something and think that's what the work world is. Accountants and lawyers are extremely expensive, and most wealthy people cant afford a rough lawsuit. the "wealthy" world you imagine is quite literally that, imagined. please go to school
Check out Phil Joy's other moves on CZcams. They load a Victorian onto a barge. I believe there are also pics of of them moving a submarine. Save a tree, move a house!
life doesnt stop but there is so much more that that type of money could have been spent on.. i mean.. imagine takin that money and providing a couple of places in texas for people to eat, bathe in and drink fresh water.. maybe gas for the generators.. im no billionaire but most people are too stimulated by the vanity of all this. we need help.
there is no ending in providing financial help, you can gather all wealth in this planet and use it all up to aid the ones who needs them and still manage to find more people who needs financial help.
do you not see your flaw? you think youre beeing an activist. but youre not, youre being lazy. IF you want to help the poor, then go work harder and help them. I do, I love to give to charity, but only a self-absorbed and arrogant fool, sits down, believes themselves poor, then yells about how the rich spend their money. And worst of all, calls it activism and believes themselves a moral person for it. ridiculous
@@RaymondHng A lot of things change drastically within blocks in this city. Nonetheless It’s an impressive feat, but it’s still about money. It was nice to see the Chinese New Year special on the news and clips of the city I grew up in, the real city.
Historic building?? More like unsafe mobile home now. Should be put in with all other mobile home community. Not worth the price for unsafe/unstable property. If this house worth millions, all the other mobile/manufacturer house should be worth millions as well and not on the ten thousands
Was it worth it, no. I bet they’re just going to gut it and turn it into another plain, modern styled carcass. Why put so much effort into moving an already beautiful historical building if they’re going to drain it of its original charm? Just build something new and stop saying “wow! I love it’s old world charm, it has soooo much character, suuuperrrr cool vibes”, and then destroy the very thing you claimed to have “loved” in the first place.
It's funny how fast the city workers showed up to trim trees and remove signs for transporting a house... but it takes months to years for the city to clean up the streets and figure out a solution for the homeless population. The priorities aren't in order... People love the "history" of SF so much that the city lost thousands of residents during the pandemic because they can't afford the overly priced rent and tight living spaces. The tech boom turned SF into a different city and it's slowly losing its history. Everything we consider historic is from decades past. In the future, I feel like the past 15-20 years will be looked at as the time SF turned into a money hungry city. I mean... look at the Salesforce Tower for example... they approved a huge building to change a historic skyline and now the offices in the building are practically empty because of the pandemic...The city saw the $400,000 price tag and didn't skip a beat...
The Truck Driver is the real hero of this story.
I praise the original architect!

Hopefully, they secure the house properly at the new place, so it will not be stolen.
Got that covered. Kryptonite lock. 😁
Haha 😃
I love Victorian houses, thank you for preserving them.
I say goodnight to the house 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I hope he doesn’t become a meme
Typical SF lying clown.
I was waiting for this comment lol.
They can move an entire house but can’t budge the homeless. Ironic
Lol as a resident the house is more willing, though this was a nice pep to the year.
Interesting. Sure sounds like you want them swept away rather than houses.

Send the homeless to Slab City
😭😭😭 bruh I’m weak.
This sort of reminds me of the space shuttle moving through the streets of Los Angeles in 2012!

The house looks haunted...fitting for being paired with a friggin mortuary 👀
Afterwards it will become a hot tourism!
I've been inside that house over 15 years ago.
Many years ago in Berkeley they moved a Victorian house straight down University Avenue now that was cool
Love these old houses. God Bless. Thanks for saving Abit of History 👍.😁❤️🙋 Charlotte in Oregon.
Heard in the crowd, "Damn RVs are getting too big".
So glad the house was preserved!
That truck driver deserves a medal!
How are you going to compare a pink triangle to moving a house?
Exactly what I thought.😳
The City loves its history???????
Hummm, let’s ask The Fox Theatre or Playland at the Beach how much love it got from the City!!!!!!!!

Oops! I meant 708 Franklin! You don't suppose you could....
Ladies and gentlemen, for their next trick they will move a Victorian House down Lombard Street!
I once grew up by an old village with a trolley on the main Street. It's always the old fashioned that gives that different fantasy. Que no.
So they can move a old Victorian home but can't solve a homeless crisis in the city
He doesn’t own the city.. just the home.
Notice how they used money on the appropriate solution for the problem
Common Sense would tell you moving a home is a lot easier. You'll probably be homeless before along with that kind of smooth brain operation
Agreed. I thought the same thing

only in sf baby !!!! I love you Bay Area

Did they get the squatters our first?
Great job!!!! So many things could gone wrong with that move..... especially moving down the hill.
Look like the charmed house
It is such a beautiful home!
Mr. Fredericksen forgot to use balloons to move his house!! 🤣🤣🤭
Wow, $400k to move a house... it is a lot cheaper to take it down.
No, the developer will earn a lot more after they turn it into an eight-story 48-unit apartment at its new location six blocks away.
Hurrah for the move!! And Hurrah for EVERYONE who kept their masks on! So impressed. I would say...only in the City..but..wow. the new owner will probably get dinged for all the signage they had to bring down too...
With so much city defacement by homeless and graffiti taggers. This small street signage should be nothing.
The signage removal costs were part of the $200,000 in fees paid.
17 new housing units for the city? What?
The moving castle 😂 that Japanese anime movie
next time call Dr. Hank Pym and he will shrink it down to size, put it in his pocket and walk it over to the new location.

Together with a former mortuary building?!

no...no...no it wasn't.
