The house's journey has been in the planning stages for nearly eight years.

The route it took from its location in Franklin Street to its new home at 635 Fulton Street is seen above.

Quite funny but I don't think so...

Just three days ago... I was wondering how and why wood housing became an identity to the Americans despite worries about deforestation here.

My little research made me know wood housing is much more affordable to them due to large availability of materials for initial construction and repairs. Besides, Americans are very mobile people... One day they are here and the other they are not.

Interesting to know that wood also exhibit low thermal conductivity and the Americans pay little tax on wood housing as compared to building concrete houses.

Oyinbo ppl cherish history, esp the architect that designed the house. This same house will sell better at auction than a new house built with a million $$
