Prior to 1955 when the city was incorporated, the area was known as Pleasant Hill.

In addition to its own post office, Red Bank has a City Hall that has a tale of expansion and evolution along with the town. The original business meetings were conducted in the Masonic building off Unaka Street, and then relocated to a wooden dwelling, and then opened in 1971 on Dayton Boulevard where it would be renovated and expanded over time.
