Gearhart House: Design

February 9, 2015

Some time in the 1940s or '50s, an officer's quarters at Fort Stevens was uprooted and driven twelve miles down the northern Oregon coast on US-101 to its current home in Gearhart (pop. 1,500). It was built to last five years. Nearly 70 years later, it has changed hands -- from the family whose home it had been for the better part of the twentieth century to my mother and father -- and after two years of happy use, it is facing the very likely possibility that the time has come for it to kick the bucket.
