The Cooper Landing Historic District encompasses a cluster of five buildings in Cooper Landing, Alaska. Oriented toward the Kenai River but now accessible from the Sterling Highway, the district includes two residential structures (a house built out of recycled bridge timbers and a modest log cabin) built before 1910, the Cooper Landing Post Office, built in the 1910s, the c. 1925 log Riddiford School, and the c. 1946 Leo Douglas log cabin. They represent the historic heart of the Cooper Landing community, which stretches for 10 miles (16 km) along the highway,[2] and were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]
