A tale of determination, friendship, and knowing what matters. Cue all the feels.
Before Carl and Russell took their adventures into the wilds of Venezuela, the iconic cottage house in Disney and Pixar's Up was still on the ground, in the midst of encroaching high-rise construction.
In Seattle, the story of this house had a very similar plot.

Meet Edith Macefield.
Her 108-year-old farmhouse in the Seattle neighborhood of Ballard was in the middle of an area undergoing lots of commercial development. Before moving to this little house in Washington state, Edith had an interesting life. Born in Oregon in 1921, Edith lied about her age in order to join the service and support the war effort in England. Even when others discovered that she wasn't 18, Edith stayed overseas to care for orphans until her mother became ill and she returned to the States. Her only child, a son, died of meningitis at 13.
