When 86-year-old Edith Macefield refused a $1 million offer to move from her Seattle home, a developer started building a five-story project around it.

Edith also heard yelling, 'And stay off my lawn!!" (kidding)

wow thats a hard offer to refuse. Even at 86, she could have donated most of the $ and lived in a kick ass resort on a beach being waited on, thats the way Id like to end my years. As much as developments suck, I would have took the money and ran,lol

Good for her though!!

Wow... that is a large sum to turn down, but in 86 years, I bet she has learned that money isn't everything it's cracked up to be. :hippie:

I wonder if it's a matter of principle, or if she has bodies buried there :o

There is a guy not selling out to Sprawl-Mart. I caught it this morning on the news, if I see the article I post it.
