Grapevine moved a 166-year-old log cabin from its original location to a new one along historic Main Street, where it will be restored and preserved for generations.
The city of Grapevine is moving the Bushong Log Cabin on Friday.
The cabin was originally built by George Emanuel Bushong in 1858 on a site that is now Silverside Drive near the Gaylord Texan Resort. The cabin is being moved more than a mile to a new home at Liberty Park Plaza on Main Street.
