CHICAGO — It took two days to move the 750-ton historic Harriet Rees House, but you can watch the one-block move in two minutes.
Built in 1888, the house was forced to move from its original location at 2110 S. Prairie Ave. to its new home at 2017 S. Prairie Ave. to make way for expansion of McCormick Place.
In October, the coach house made the move. The main house took the journey on Nov. 11 and 12.
The video includes frames taken at 20-second intervals from high above Prairie Avenue, according to its YouTube description.
