A grand piano was craned into a home in the Arts District Hyattsville’s east side Wednesday afternoon.

Homeowner Lise Nau, a retired piano technician, said that craning pianos is common in urban areas with narrower entryways and stairs. But it was definitely a notable occurrence in Hyattsville.

Workers with D&E Professional Piano Movers lifted the piano with a crane from Johnson Crane Services of Beltsville to the rooftop terrace of Nau’s home at the corner of 45th Avenue and Longfellow Street.
