1938 Map of Grand Forks

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

The confluence of the Red River of the North and the Red Lake River anchors this 1930s landscape, illustrating the industrial and educational heart of the Red River Valley. Grand Forks appears as a dense urban grid, flanked by institutions like the University of North Dakota and Wesley College. The surrounding prairie is methodically divided by township lines, where small agrarian hubs like Merrifield and Thompson sit along the Great Northern railroad line.
