Flora Robinson, the 102-year-old resident of the house, is well known around town for her historic home. She watches from the confines of its walls as the town she has lived her entire life in changes around her.<\/p>\n<p>Flora feels she has outlived her time, witnessing the demise of her house and her health as the world slowly turns around them. The house will most likely be torn down after Flora&#8217;s death, leaving Elizabeth City without the historical landmark and ties to the past so many of its residents long for. For now, her house and memories offer a glimpse into what Elizabeth City was like during her time.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-3 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-one-full fusion-column-first fusion-column-last\" style=\"margin-top:50px;margin-bottom:50px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><div class=\"fusion-sep-clear\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-separator fusion-full-width-sep\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;width:100%;\"><div class=\"fusion-separator-border sep-single sep-solid\" style=\"border-color:E0DEDE;border-top-width:1px;\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-sep-clear\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-2 nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling fusion-equal-height-columns\" style=\"background-color: FFFFFF;background-position: center center;background-repeat: no-repeat;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;margin-bottom: 0px;margin-top: 0px;border-width: 0px 0px 0px 0px;border-color:EAE9E9;border-style:solid;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-4 fusion_builder_column_1_2 1_2 fusion-one-half fusion-column-first\" style=\"width:50%;width:calc(50% - ( ( 4% ) * 0.5 ) );margin-right: 4%;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:20px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><a id=\"\" class=\"\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/cpjw.unc.edu\/2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/flora_1.jpg\" data-rel=\"prettyPhoto\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cpjw.unc.edu\/2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/flora_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-5 fusion_builder_column_1_2 1_2 fusion-one-half fusion-column-last\" style=\"width:50%;width:calc(50% - ( ( 4% ) * 0.5 ) );margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:20px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><a id=\"\" class=\"\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/cpjw.unc.edu\/2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/flora_11.jpg\" data-rel=\"prettyPhoto\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cpjw.unc.edu\/2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/flora_11.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-6 fusion_builder_column_1_3 1_3 fusion-one-third fusion-column-first\" style=\"width:33.333333333333%;width:calc(33.333333333333% - ( ( 4% + 4% ) * 0.33333333333333 ) );margin-right: 4%;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:20px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><a id=\"\" class=\"\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/cpjw.unc.edu\/2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/flora_15-.jpg\" data-rel=\"prettyPhoto\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cpjw.unc.edu\/2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/flora_15-.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-7 fusion_builder_column_1_3 1_3 fusion-one-third\" style=\"width:33.333333333333%;width:calc(33.333333333333% - ( ( 4% + 4% ) * 0.33333333333333 ) );margin-right: 4%;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:20px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-4\"><h3><\/h3>\n<h3>&#8220;I&#8217;ve lived too long.
