2021 Map of Hartford North

About this map

The glacial highlands of the Coteau des Prairies dominate this Minnehaha County landscape, where the northern edge of Hartford meets a sprawling agricultural grid. This survey captures a specific drainage pattern defined by Skunk Cr and the W Br Skunk Cr, watercourses that have shaped the development of the region's farms and transport corridors. The southern margin of the sheet reveals the town's residential growth along N Main Ave and N Oaks Ave, providing a detailed view of the community just north of the Interstate corridor. Notable water features like Scotts Slough and Colton Cr break the geometric precision of the township roads, marking the natural lowlands within this elevated plateau. Local researchers can trace the modern layout of suburban developments such as those near Grand View Meadow St against the historical section lines of the Public Land Survey System.
