Building History. The Blue House was built in the early 1940s on the site where Burbank Scales used to be located. It has had several addtions over the years. There is an apartment on the top floor.

The Burbank Scales were large enough to weigh a team of horses and a wagon. Livestock were often weighed there and kept in pens in the Meadow and behind the current location of the Beekeeper Inn.
