TIL that in 2006, a woman named Edith Macefield turned down a reported offer of $1 million to sell her 108-year-old farmhouse to make way for a commercial development in the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle, Washington. Instead, the five-story project was built surrounding her house.
Thats not a farm house. Its just a house.
They developed the rest of the farm.
108 years old. I’m sure it was a farm house when it was built.
The farm packed up and left. Sadly couldn’t move the house it was to heavy… S/
