Interesting Photographs Documented Victorian Houses Moving in San Francisco in the 1970s

Photographer Dave Glass documented the relocation of several such homes in San Francisco in the mid-1970s. As part of an urban renewal effort, these 19th-century homes in the Western Addition neighborhood were moved. They were then sold for just $1 plus the cost of the relocation and renovations.
