Some friends of ours are in the moving business. Moving brick
structures is actually not too bad of a job at all. Technology has
really changed things in the past 20 years.

Moving the Cape Hatteras lighthouse was one of the more challenging

Moving the Newark Airport Terminal was so huge that it literally used
every functioning apparatus in the country.


Holy crap! Moving a lighthouse? That's a whole lot of vertical to create movement around the base - all of that "moment of stuff stuff" that they tried to teach me in physics and mechanics...
