The pic of Walt and Ruth on the porch shows that house was originally at grade level and then raised because of flooding in the area. Most of the house has been restored from previous remodels.
Tags on the windows are people who've dont to restoration. It is privately owned and have had help from Disney, but Disney doesn't control any of it
What a lovely birthday gift! Thanks for the photos. We visited the family’s farmhouse in Marceline, MO, and I hope to visit the birthplace in Chicago some day.
