1990 Map of Buchanan
USGS Topo · Published 1995About this map
Buchanan stands as the primary settlement on this North Dakota prairie landscape, situated along a north-south corridor marked by Highway 52 and Highway 281. The map reflects a landscape defined by its water management and agricultural grid, where the wide James River Valley is dominated by the expansive James River Reservoir along the eastern edge. This reservoir creates a stark contrast to the surrounding terrain of Plainview, which is dotted with numerous small potholes and wetlands characteristic of the glacial till in Stutsman County. Local history is anchored by the small Cem located just north of the town center, while the rectangular township and range lines of R 65 W and R 64 W delineate the organized rural settlement pattern of the late twentieth century.
