1955 Map of Tillamook

About this map

Tillamook serves as the focal point of this mid-century survey, situated at the confluence of the Wilson River, Trask River, and Tillamook River before they reach the expanse of Tillamook Bay. The landscape reflects a diverse coastal economy, featuring the famous Cheese Factory and the Southern Pacific railroad lines that connected the dairy and timber industries to wider markets. To the south, the Naval Air Station indicates the area's continued strategic importance following the war years.
