a daunting task due to the complexities that arise when combining preservation, planning,
development, and climatic hardships. Using Tillamook County's coastline as the study area, this
thesis explores the historical development of Tillamook County's structures and the current
barriers that exist when trying to preserve them. Historical discussions include the development
of transportation routes, recreational amenities, and the evolution of coastal construction
materials, along with historic local and regional planning decisions that helped shaped towns
along Tillamook County's coastline. Following this historical discussion, current preservation
challenges will be discussed as well as the recommendations for preserving and maintaining
vernacular coastal beach houses of the Pacific Northwest. / Committee in Charge:
