The historic Fox Cottage, at 2612 Channing Way is being prepared for its 500-foot move to 2350 Bowditch St. The cottage, built in 1930, has had some interior walls removed so workers can brace the frail brick walls for the move. Once the walls are stiffened, the cottage will be hydraulically lifted and put on dollies before it trundles to its new home around the corner. The cost of the excursion is estimated to be at least $750,000.
