OVER
HEAD WIRES COMPLICATE LOG CABIN MORE
It was all down hill today for this
46-year-old log cabin donated to the city of Edmonds by Resident Lee
Hanley, who plans to build houses on its original wooded site near Seaview
Elementary School. Built in 1929 by Gaston Ganahl, the two-story cabin
features a rustic interior and a mammoth stone fireplace, a portion of
which was removed for the snails-pace journey to a site next door to the
Edmonds Historical Museum on N. Fifth Avenue. The Edmonds Chamber of
Commerce will use it for an office. The going was slow yesterday for
Seattle contractors K&K Construction, who had to remove nearly every
wire crossing the route. "The cabin was 26 feet high and most of the wires
were 24 feet high," said a city employee. "It took an hour at 84th and
196th alone." (Staff photos by Cole Porter) |
