Palmer House in Grand Island

THE PALMER HOUSE

The Palmer House located on the corner of Third and Sycamore Streets in Grand Island, Nebraska. Current site of the Eagles Club

"In 1887 the Palmer House was built, through the energies of C. W. Scarff. This four-story building at Second and Sycamore, in its day a most magnificent structure costing about $80,000, was as important a step ahead in the career of the community as the new ten-story North American Hotel is to this generation, and after its thirty-two years of continuous operation, until the completion of the North American or some other modern structure of that class, remains the second best hotel building in the city. In recent years this hostelry has been under the management of Henry Schuff and son—with Lester Schuff giving it his personal attention."
