Just barely enough to be living…”

If anyone has the money to move buildings around it's Harvard. When I lived in Orlando they were extending the East/West Expressway and they had to move a bunch of houses out of the way. People got so tired of being late to work because they were stuck behind a house that they made new laws that said you could only move buildings during certain times of the day. It certainly is an impressive sight no matter how slowly they do it. Those pictures were taken right down the street from me. If anyone has the money to move buildings around it’s Harvard.

They tore down the Wheel Inn (home of the goober burger) to put in turn lane. That place was a Missouri classic and is now gone forever. i think they should do this more often instead of tearing down good buildings.
