The Masters Building is a historic building located in Mount Pleasant, Iowa, United States. Completed in 1937, this two story, brick structure is an adaptation of the commercial Art Deco and Art Moderne styles. The decorative elements are found in the brick patterning and cast concrete panels on the facade. There are three other buildings on this same block that were built about the same time and use the same decorative techniques, with the Masters Building being the best example. This area was an expansion of the central business district after the construction of city hall across the street in 1936. A plumbing business, for which this building was constructed, was located on the first floor. There are three apartments on the second floor. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.

Mount Pleasant City Hall is the official seat of government of the city of Mount Pleasant, Iowa, United States. 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 YMCA-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 to their own buildings. City hall was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.

The Harlan House Hotel is a historic building located in Mount Pleasant, Iowa, United States. It is associated with James Harlan, the first Republican to represent Iowa in the United States Senate (1855-1865, 1867–1872). He was also Secretary of the Interior (1865-1867). His daughter Mary was the wife of Robert Todd Lincoln, President Abraham Lincoln's only surviving son. Harlan built the oldest part of this building as his house in 1857. After his career as a Senator, he could no longer afford the house and bought another house in Mount Pleasant. Harlan built the first addition onto his old house and converted it into a hotel so he could support himself. He added onto the hotel two more times, c. 1880 and 1892. The first two additions are on the alley side of the building, and the third addition faces Jefferson Street. The middle section of the building with the bracketed cornice and mansard roof is the original house. Harlan moved into the hotel in the early 1890s and died here in 1899. A few minor alterations were made to the building in the 20th century. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.

First National Bank is a historic building located in Mount Pleasant, Iowa, United States. The bank was first located on this corner in the 1860s. Its first building was a small, brick Italianate structure. This building replaced it in 1923. It is a two-story stone structure designed by Chicago architect Paul V. Hyland in the Neoclassical style. It is unique in Mount Pleasant in that it is the only stone building facing the square, and it reflects more of a public building instead of a commercial building. It is similar in style to the Henry County Courthouse, which is diagonally across the square. The exterior of the primary and secondary facades is composed of ashlar limestone and features paired pilasters on the corners of the primary facade, and a single column in the Corinthian order that flank the main entrance.

The McCandless Building is a historic building located in Mount Pleasant, Iowa, United States. This three story brick Italianate structure was built in 1862 by local builder William McCandless. With the arrival of the railroad in 1856, Mount Pleasant was in need of new commercial buildings to house businesses and services that were opening in the expanding town. They were built on the north and east side of the town square. The Italianate was a prominent style used in the city at this time having been used by about a dozen buildings. This buildings features three round arch windows on the second and third floors with brick patterned hood molds. The storefront has been altered slightly, and the heavy wooden cornice that graced the top of the main facade was removed some time ago. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.

The Masonic Temple Theater (subsequently the Temple Twin Theaters, and in 2013 the Main Street Cinemas) is a historic building located in Mount Pleasant, Iowa, United States. Built in 1923, it combined both commercial and fraternal functions in one building. The theater company paid for the construction of the lower level, and the Masons paid for the upper level. The Masons continued to occupy the space until 1989 when they moved to another facility. The building was designed in the Neoclassical style by Owen, Payson & Carswell, and K.A. Bergdahl was the contractor who built it. Neoclassical features include the balustrade, the medallion with the Masonic insignia, volutes above the windows, the parapet roof, and the ornamental frieze and cornice. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.

National State Bank is a historic building located in Mount Pleasant, Iowa, United States. Because this two story, brick Italianate structure was built specifically as a bank, it features a chamfered corner, which was commonly used to designate a bank in the last quarter of the 19th century. However, it combines other features typical of an Italianate commercial building in an unusual way. The secondary facade has segmental arched windows that are regularly spaced, while the primary facade has the windows in a sophisticated arrangement that one would expect of an architect-designed building. (The potential architect of this building, or even its builder, are unknown.) The metal cornice has widely spaced brackets on the primary facade and more typically spaced on the secondary facade. It also lacks an identification pediment on the corner, which is typical of the style. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.

Old Main is an historic building located on the Iowa Wesleyan University campus in Mount Pleasant, Iowa, United States. Built in 1854, when James Harlan was the college's president, it is the second building constructed on the campus after Pioneer Hall. It is believed that Old Main was the first genuine collegiate building built in Iowa. The bricks for the building were manufactured locally by Benjamin Franklin Pearson of Keosauqua, Iowa, who also was responsible for some of the building's construction. The three-story building has modified classical features. It was designed to have classrooms on the first two floors and the library, natural history museum and chapel on the third floor. The building is capped with a hip roof with bracketed eaves, and a wooden cupola with a low dome painted gold. The International P.E.O. Sisterhood was founded in the building. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.
