2014 Map of Grand Forks

About this map

The Red River of the North serves as the winding border between North Dakota and Minnesota, defining the twin-city relationship of Grand Forks and East Grand Forks. This 2014 survey captures the urban density concentrated around the Univ of North Dakota and the convergence of major transit corridors, including the Bnsf Railway and Gateway Dr. The landscape is shaped by the glacial legacy of the Altamont Moraine to the south and the meandering path of the English Coulee, which cuts through the residential and academic heart of the city. Notable for genealogists and local historians, the map identifies several significant resting places such as Memorial Park Cem, Calvary Cem, and Sunset Memorial Gardens. To the north, the industrial and rail-influenced settlements of North Grand Forks and Calspur illustrate the ongoing expansion of the metropolitan area beyond its traditional riverfront core.
