SACRAMENTO (CBS) – A Sacramento-based company is getting a lot of attention after successfully moving a Victorian mansion in San Francisco last weekend.

Cameron Scott is in the spotlight after driving the truck that hauled the 139-year-old Victorian Englander House seven blocks down the streets of San Francisco last Sunday.

“One of my dreams was to move a building across San Francisco,” said Scott. “It was amazing to see all the people who came out.”

The 27-year-old told CBS Sacramento that there is a lot of pressure to be the one behind the wheel.

“Before you take the first train, you keep thinking through your head: ‘Did I do that? Are the blocks out of the way of the tires? ‘ You know, you are thinking about everything that could happen next, ”Scott explained.

This is nothing new for his family business Scott Heavy Movers. The Sacramento-based company has existed since 1959 and is known for moving massive objects such as buildings and bridges.

“It’s crazy because that happens every day, the only difference between this one and a normal one is that we were in San Francisco,” he said.

In the Sacramento area, Scott Heavy Movers is currently working on a FEMA-funded project to build houses out of the floodplain.

“We probably did six or eight last year and that’s great because it really helps a lot of people,” said Scott.

The move cost the owner more than $ 400,000. Moving Victorians around town was common during the 1960s redevelopment, but it got more difficult over time, making Englander House the first San Francisco Victorian to move since 1974.

The Scott family feels proud to know that their work helps save history.

“If not, this building would have been demolished, which is a terrible idea because it’s a beautiful building inside and out,” said Scott. “To know that we have moved is a great feeling.”
