Brochure, "Some Facts regarding the Oliver Wolcott House," Dearborn Inn Colonial Village, 1937
01
Artifact Overview
By the mid-1930s, the Dearborn Inn, a popular luxury hotel, required additional accommodations to service travelers and visitors to the Edison Institute (later renamed The Henry Ford). The L.G. Treadway Service Corporation consulted with Edsel Ford and had five reproduction houses constructed behind the Inn. The exteriors were exact replicas of homes famous in American history, but guests found modern amenities inside.
