As the city grew in population and expanded in size in the early 20th century, there was a need to add to the city's fire protection. A 1931 study recommended a new fire station on the south side. Seven years later, the New Deal-era Public Works Administration (PWA) approved funding for Mason City's second fire station and a new water tower. Property was acquired the same year. The local architectural firm of Hansen & Waggoner submitted plans for the new fire station in 1939, and local contractor Rye & Henkel won approval to build it. The PWA provided 45% of the funding with the remainder from local sources.
