Downtown Hollister is on the National Register of Historic Places. Though many long-standing buildings were damaged beyond repair in the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, much of the historic atmosphere still remains, as do several surviving structures.
-
City Hall (375 5th Street, between San Benito and Monterey Streets) is a former Carnegie library completed in 1912.
-
Veterans' Memorial Building (649 San Benito Street, at 7th Street) is used for community gatherings and features a prominent plaza with memorial displays dedicated to locals lost in World Wars I and II and the Vietnam War.
Monterey Street between 5th and B Streets is also on the National Register of Historic Places. The street near Downtown features offices, many operating in converted residences, and a cluster of churches. Farther from Downtown, Monterey Street is more residential, with the exception of the original, ornately painted Hazel Hawkins Hospital at the Hawkins Street intersection. A mix of generally well-maintained architectures of the late 19th and early 20th Centuries are found on Monterey Street.
- One block west of 5th and Monterey stands a 1909 house containing the San Benito County Historical Society Museum (498 5th Street, at West Street), which features many artifacts, photographs, and resources representing Hollister and San Benito County's history.
