For the first time in more than 45 years, a Victorian home was relocated in San Francisco Sunday.
The 1880 Italianate-style house, once located at 807 Franklin, crawled seven blocks to 635 Fulton on a hydraulic dolly operated by remote control.

The morning had an almost celebratory feel, with onlookers cheering as the house moved inch by inch. Known as the Englander House, it began traveling south down Franklin Street to Golden Gate Ave around 7:20 a.m. It turned right to travel west to Laguna Street, making its final turn onto Fulton where it will be nestled next to an old mortuary.
