WorldPhoto: HT WorldEdith Macefield Refused $1 Million Offer as Seattle Developers Built Around Her
In 2006, Seattle developers offered Edith Macefield up to $1 million, including a comparable home and lifetime health care, to sell her property. She refused, choosing to stay in her home as a shopping complex was built around it. By the project's end, her house was surrounded on three sides by a five-story concrete structure, reflecting her determination to remain despite pressure.
