Ironwood Memorial Building History

History Displays

More than just home to the City of Ironwood offices, the Ironwood Memorial Building is both a living memorial to local war veterans and a tribute to the community spirit that built it. American Legion Post No. 5, Ironwood Women's Club, and Mayor James A O'Neil led the effort to raise more than $750,000 including interior furnishings in bonds issued for the building, a feat receiving national attention because Ironwood's population was only 17,000 in 1922. Remodeling in 1996 cost more than $1.6 million; evidence of continuing community support for this multi-purpose building.
