American architect

Conde Balcom McCullough (May 30, 1887 – May 6, 1946) was an American civil engineer who is primarily known for designing many of Oregon's coastal bridges on U. S. Route 101. The native of South Dakota worked for the Oregon Department of Transportation from 1919 to 1935 and 1937 until he died in 1946. McCullough also was a professor at Oregon State University.

Conde McCullough was born in Redfield, South Dakota, on May 30, 1887. In 1891, he and his family moved to Iowa where his father died in 1904.

McCullough began working for the Marsh Bridge Company in Des Moines, Iowa, where he remained for one year. McCullough advocated that bridges be built economically, efficiently, and with beauty. In 1928, he graduated from Willamette University College of Law and passed the bar the same year. In 1935 he moved to San José, Costa Rica to help design bridges on the Pan American Highway. He returned to Oregon in 1937 to become the assistant state highway engineer.

In 1934 McCullough was granted an honorary doctorate from Oregon State University. He was close to his 59th birthday. He was interred in the Mount Crest Abbey Mausoleum at City View Cemetery in Salem. His wife Marie was interred there after her death in 1954. Following McCullough's death, the state of Oregon renamed the "North Bend Bridge" in his honor.
