This document serves dual purposes. Its primary purpose is as an Historic Preservation Plan for the Town of Coupeville, with preservation policies to be adopted by the Town as part of its Comprehensive Plan. Secondly, it is a popular history chronicling the town's development.over nearly 150 years. It builds on the premise that each section of town has its own unique character, shaped by its own history and development pattern. To accomplish these varied purposes, the document contains four sections. The first is a brief overview of Coupeville's history, focusing on its physical development more than on social or economic matters. The following section supports this overview, containing a more detailed account of specific aspects of town development, such as annexations, roads, utilities, schools and residential and commercial growth. Section III is more specific and forms the basis of the preservation policies. This section divides the town into seven areas and 21 subareas, discussing the major character elements that have developed over time to make each neighborhood unique. Finally, a list of policies for future preservation of these characteristics is included.
