Summary
The Balcony House, located in Imperial, is significant for its association with transportation and more specifically the Detroit-Lincoln-Denver Highway. Built as a rural school in the 1880s, the building was closed in 1921 and relocated to Imperial. That same year it was converted to a hotel at a tourist camp along the Detroit-Lincoln-Denver Highway.
