Old Howe House is moving today


For those of you who remember the old house next to the Beacon Journal:

The Richard Howe House — a home built by the resident engineer of the Ohio & Erie Canal — will be moved today by a high-tech remote control device two blocks west from the spot it has occupied at Exchange and High Streets since 1836 to a new home at Water and Exchange Street.

The building, which was erected when Andrew Jackson was president, will eventually become home of the Ohio & Erie Canalway Coalition.
