Why didn't they just change the new building plan as the way that it will include the church, so, they don't have to move and it will cost less..?

That was my first thought.

Perhaps because they dont want to sacrifice half of the usable space of their new building. Also its pretty bad form to have a church inside your courthouse... if you dont keep church & state separate sometimes you end up burning witches. I understand theyre a little sensitive about that in Salem.

Why not build an identical one? Because it's not allowed under modern building code. Why not build a new one that looks the same but meets modern building code? Because the permitting process will take forever.

Lifting a building with air pressure is so dangerous The reason the jacks are leaking OIL is because they are using hydraulics.
@detroitbob583 жыл бұрын
I caught that one too. They could NEVER pick that up with air, just not strong enough. That's why brakes on cars are still hydraulic. Wonder what this move cost? Five million dollars??

The relentless pessimism is a real downer. The consequences of even the slightest most trivial task are inevitably fatal. Thankfully, no witches were harmed during the making of the film.

Just a couple of questions... 1. Why didn't they leave the church where it was and build the new court building in a mirror image so the old church was the right wing instead of the left wing? 2. Wouldn't it have been a good idea to check the condition of the foundations on the lower and final resting place BEFORE they lifted the 1000 ton building off its foundations? I mean I don't know... I've never moved a 200 year old, 1000 ton church in my life but if anyone ever ask me to, I think those would be the first questions I would ask? Just saying!

The job itself is very interesting. The pessimistic and patently staged dramas are an unfortunate way of talking down to the viewers. At one point the hydraulic lifting hoses are referred to as airlines. They can't even get their basic facts right. Amazing feat to have moved this building without damage, but could the new courthouse design not be altered to include the church on its original foundations?
