I'm actually a tech working at that site, Ive been working there since last summer and to think that the massive church was moved that distance just blows my mind. I have to work under that church (that's now a Law Library) and its amazing the cuts they made in order to move that thing. Its just amazing. Oddly enough, the project is scheduled to be completed in mid June.

@alchemyofsalem And you didn't know? I believe the reason for moving this unused Church,was new developments around it so it then stood in the way. Also the library was bursting with books so If they could move it 100yards down a hill to the Courthouse it could become the new library. They faced all sorts of problems inc freezing cold and always a danger of collapse. Church had to be lifted off its foundations, then insert crossed steel beams, 26 jacks & 280 wheels!

I visited Salem for two weeks and loved it! I saw this building after it was moved. It's amazing that they can move such a historic, masonry structure with such care.

My mom and I stood outside all day tuesday and wednesday before being finding out they were having trouble and were going to move it on Thursday and again on Saturday. We stood outside both those days as well. Mom wore Pink and was on channel 7 news, she was in the salem news and interviewed for the Boston Globe and the Discovery channel. It was great to see the care they took on moving the church. I was a member there for 37 years, mom for over 40! Richard Larouix, was wonderful during all

I watched for awhile, too, but it was really, really cold out there. My hat's off to those who were out there in that cold all day to pull this off.

Thanks! It was freezing cold, but it was fun to do and I liked how it turned out.

Nice Job! I watched and taped it for awhile, but quit because I was freezing my butt off.
