AURORA - In his 14 years moving barns and houses, Rick Lazarus has learned not to sweat the big, banging noises. It's the small, cracking ones that he usually has to worry about when he's moving a barn. Luckily, Lazarus and his three-man crew didn't hear anything that alarmed them while relocating a 110-year-old barn Monday for businesswoman Pleasant Rowland, behind the historic house she's renovating on Route 90. Using a winch on a boom truck, the 900-square-foot barn was picked up off its cement foundation and moved 40 feet to the south. The four workers returned Monday morning to move the wood-structure about 80 feet up a small incline in Rowland's backyard. The crew experienced some complications and will finish moving the 25-ton barn to it new location Tuesday, Lazarus said.
