General Recommendations


  1. This context statement in part serves as a reference tool. The research methodology and bibliography outline the myriad research sources available throughout the state that contain valuable information on the coast highway’s historic context. These sources should be referenced as part of more in-depth analysis and documentation of specific highway features.

  2. Use this historic context as a tool for managing historic highway resources. In planning for upcoming work that impacts several resource types, such as box culverts or cattle passes, conduct an inventory and further research that can be added the historic context, particularly for resource types where the existing historical research provides only a surface-level documentation.

  3. Conduct survey and inventory work to generate quantitative data on the integrity of historic highway features. The resource types outlined in this document can be categorized for either a large-scale survey project, or used to manage smaller survey endeavors of a single resource type, such as highway rock features, highway segments that pass through urban communities, or coastal state parks.

Recommendations for Cultural Landscapes


  1. The Coast Highway, which is eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places as a cultural landscape, contains contributing and non-contributing elements. Several sections of the highway have been realigned, sometimes in several iterations, in a manner that may diminish the segment’s integrity of location, setting, design, materials, workmanship, feeling and association. It is critical to assess the integrity of the right-of-way within the context of other highway elements, such as viewsheds and scenic areas, state parks, bridges, and rock walls, that may contribute to the overall significance and integrity of the coast highway as a cultural landscape.

Recommendations for Government Resources


  1. It is recommended that the Cascade Head Experimental Forest Headquarters be further evaluated for its connection to US 101. The experimental forest has a significant association with the highway’s development and contributes to its overall setting and scenic character. The headquarters building, which dates to 1936-1937, retains excellent integrity.

  2. An additional government-related resource identified during 2014 fieldwork was the ODOT Reedsport Maintenance Station located at the intersection of US 101 and 11th Street in Reedsport, Douglas County. This facility dates to around 1945 and includes a horizontal, concrete block service building that appears to have most of its original windows. This unique building has a central, brick chimney stack and metal pivot windows. The roof was recently replaced and the interior of the structure was unavailable for further inspection. It is recommended that this maintenance facility be formally surveyed to better evaluate its significance within the historic context of US 101.

Recommendations for Transportation Resources


  1. Map all relocated sections of highway in GIS to assess integrity of historic highway alignment. Several sections were relocated during the period of significance and convey the dynamic nature of the highway during its historic development. Highway segments realigned outside of the period of significance may diminish aspects of the highway’s integrity. Mapping the highway abandonment resolutions would aid in assessing the integrity of highway segments.

  2. The Coast Highway bridges are well-documented using the National Register of Historic Places as an important recordation tool. This model may become useful as a tool for listing coastal state parks, highway segments with good integrity, or other individually significant highway features.

  3. Rocky Creek to Otter Crest (Otter Crest Loop) (now a county road) is designated as part of the Oregon Coast Scenic Bikeway. This segment contains several historic highway-associated features and is a significant cultural landscape. It is recommended that ODOT collaborate with the Oregon Coast Scenic Bikeway program for interpretation or compliance measures on this segment as well as other abandoned significant highway segments that retain excellent integrity.

Recommendations for Community Development Resources


  1. Specific communities identified during 2014 fieldwork warrant additional analysis regarding their historic association with highway development. The following is not a comprehensive list of all significant communities but provides a starting point for future survey work and research.

  • Seaside – The highway has been rerouted multiple times but currently lies within an alignment used during the historic period. Further research may identify a significant association between Seaside’s commercial development and the evolution of the highway through the city.

  • Nehalem – US 101 passes directly through Nehalem on “H” Street and then makes a sharp turn onto 7th street. No survey work has occurred in this community, and the highway may have affected local community development.

  • Depoe Bay – US 101 passes directly down the town’s Main Street. Perhaps more than any other coastal community, Depoe Bay’s establishment is directly tied to the highway’s development and the present community clearly demonstrates that link. Further research will further illuminate the city’s connection to the highway.

  • Lincoln City – A formal survey of the highway through Lincoln City is highly recommended as both the highway’s original alignment and historic relocations likely had tremendous impact on the growth and development of the city and its constituent communities. Lincoln City experienced tremendous growth following World War II, stemming from US 101’sdevelopment.

  • Otter Rock – The highway has been relocated to bypass this community, but a long segment of the original “Old US 101” remains intact as Otter Crest Loop Road. A full survey and analysis of the highway’s impact on the town of Otter Rock and Otter Crest Loop Road is recommended.

  • Yachats – The town’s development is oriented around US 101. A concentrated grouping of historic buildings remain along the town’s Main Street, making it a good candidate for future survey work.

The Oregon Historic Sites Database includes several historic properties, primarily residential and commercial buildings, with addresses along US 101. Further research is necessary to determine whether indirect historic associations connect these resources to the highway’s significant impacts on community development through tourism, industry, and commerce.
