The city became a regional service center for the surrounding agricultural areas, and the commercial buildings constructed during this late 19th century economic boom form the core of the district. The buildings are primarily red brick commercial structures, some of which have decorative storefronts; the three outliers are a frame house, an Italianate commercial building, and a Mission Revival gas station from the early twentieth century.

This 1½-story stone structure was designed by Burlington, Iowa architect William Weibley, and constructed by local builder K.A. Bergdahl. It is an eclectic combination of Colonial Revival styles. For the most part it reflects Georgian Revival aesthetics with its symmetrical facade and the pilasters that flank the main entrance. The stepped ends of the gable roof and the projecting gable above the main entrance reflect the Dutch Revival influence. The random ashlar stone used in its construction was salvaged from the Seeley Memorial Y.M.C.A./High School that was destroyed in a 1932 fire. The city hall's construction in 1936 was a Works Progress Administration project. The east wing, which has been altered from its original appearance, originally housed the city's police and fire departments before they moved into their own buildings.
