In the mid-1900s, the Port of Coos Bay held the title of "world's largest lumber shipping port". Lumber ships loaded with whole-log loads of the region's prized Douglas Fir, Western Hemlock and Port Orford Cedar timber were a common sight at the docks.
There is a proposal to build a liquified natural gas export terminal at the Port of Coos Bay. This proposal is known as the Jordan Cove Energy Project.
