Standing Up to Superstorm Sandy
Blog Cabin 2013 was lifted in preparation for the construction of a new, sturdy foundation. And then news of Superstorm Sandy hit the airwaves. Before the hurricane came ashore with tropical storm-force winds, the Blog Cabin 2013 general contractor strapped the home down to the ground and then built a sand berm around the structure to keep tidal waters from washing away the cribbings. Sandy moved inland, leaving our circa-1892 coastal cottage virtually unscathed.
Take a few moments to watch the amazing time-lapse video of the home lifting process and discover more about the history of this fascinating coastal North Carolina home, lovingly cared for and tended by members of the Robinson family.
Hi Dylan Eastman;
My question has to do with a new fireplace. Even this small cabin should have a fireplace, probably in the living room. What are the plans for this? this is now shown on the floor plan. Thanks for your raising the cabin and for recycling some of the historic elements of this old building.

Hi again:
To correct my error in typing. A fireplace is NOT shown on the floor plan.
