The city was originally settled in 1845 and was named after the Cedar River, which runs through the city. Cedar Falls has a rich history in freight transportation, as it was a major hub for the railroad industry in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

One of the most notable freight transportation landmarks in Cedar Falls is the Ice House Museum. Built in 1893, the Ice House was originally used to store ice that was harvested from the Cedar River during the winter months.
