The article tells of the move of the Historic Berlin Hotel about 1/2 mile to a new location to save it from demolition. A grass roots effort was started by the Long-A-Coming Historical Society to save the landmark built circa 1826. The move took 4 hours with the back section of the building being cut off so it would fit down the street. The hotel is the oldest commercial building on the White Horse Pike (Route 30).
