The Steensland House Is On The Move!!

As mentioned in previous posts, Engineered Construction is overseeing the relocation of the historic Steensland House. For the past 119 years the house has sat at 315 N. Carroll Street.  Tomorrow, the house will be placed on it’s new foundation right around the corner on West Gorham Street.

The project has created much buzz due to the historic nature of the home and the politics involved in moving a landmark. The Isthmus published an article last week about historic preservation in Madison that can be seen HERE.

Additionally, many people are simply fascinated by the process of picking up and relocating a structure of this size.  If you’re interested in seeing the progress or watching the house get moved, click HERE to check out the live webcam that was set up thanks to J&K Security Solutions.
