"The Auburn City Hall and Fire House, constructed in 1935-37, meets National Register Criterion C as an outstanding example of Streamline Moderne architecture in the city of Auburn and as the work of the Works Progress Administration (WPA), designed by master architect George Clinton Sellon. Streamline Moderne architectural style emphasized curving forms, long horizontal lines, and reached its height in the mid-1930s. The building is also significant under Criterion A due to its role as Auburn’s city hall and firehouse, as a government building under the Archtiectural and Historic Resources of Auburn, California MPS."
