The Jewell Apartments is a historic building located in Mason City, Iowa, United States. Completed in 1917 by local contractor Fred Lippert, this apartment building is two C-shaped buildings joined together. Lippert may have also designed the building.[2] Its Prairie School design creates a harmonious unity for this urban housing structure.[3] The exterior of the two-story building features brick on the lower two-thirds and stucco on the upper third. The band shell was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1]
