Bandon: US101 at Bullards Bridge
Bandon has served as a port on Oregon’s southern coast since the late 19th century. Set where the Coquille River meets the Pacific, the town developed around river traffic, fishing and the timber trade. US Route 101 crosses the Coquille at Bullards Bridge, north of the town, alongside the estuary and the forests of the Oregon Coast. Bullards Beach State Park occupies part of the river’s north side and includes access to the shore and the Coquille River Lighthouse. Bandon also stands in one of Oregon’s principal cranberry-growing areas. A fire in 1936 destroyed much of the town, after which its commercial center was rebuilt.

Bandon’s riverfront Old Town gathers independent shops, galleries and restaurants in a compact historic district.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
