Question
Use the excerpt to answer the question.
Since 1957, Parks's one-time home has faced demolition, been dismantled and rebuilt, traveled across the ocean and back, and put up for auction. In 2016, the house was in foreclosure and nearly destroyed. Parks' niece bought it for five hundred dollars. She hoped to have it turned into a memorial for her aunt, but could not raise enough money.
Parks’s niece then reached out to Ryan Mendoza, an artist with experience restoring historical homes. He raised funds to bring the Rosa Parks home across the Atlantic to Berlin, Germany.
Mendoza restored and displayed it as artwork in his backyard. The home was then dismantled again and shipped back to the United States, where it was put into storage. Though many parties have expressed interest, it did not sell when it was put up for auction, so its fate remains uncertain.
