Historic San Jose farmhouse to be relocated to History Park after funding secured

mercurynews.com November 30, 2024, 03:01 PM UTC

A historic farmhouse in North San Jose, once owned by community leader Eiichi "Ed" Sakauye, is set to be relocated to History Park next year. The move follows a collaborative effort to secure funding and an extended deadline from the developer. Previously, the farmhouse faced demolition as part of a development project, with a $450,000 funding gap for its relocation. The Hanover Company has now allowed until mid-2025 to raise the necessary funds, providing more time for planning. The farmhouse will be temporarily moved in February 2025, with its final relocation planned for spring or summer. The effort aims to preserve the legacy of Japanese Americans in the Santa Clara Valley.
