About this map

Jamestown dominates this landscape, where the James River and Pipestem Lake converge in the heart of Stutsman County. The city's civic and social footprint is well-documented, showing the campus of Jamestown College, the State Hosp complex, and the Jamestown Municipal Airport to the east. Local history and genealogy are anchored by several burial grounds, including Sunset Gardens, Highland Home Cem, and Jamestown Cem.

The presence of the Ft Seward Historic Site and Frontier Village highlights the area's preservation of its frontier legacy. Outside the city limits, the map traces the sprawling Jamestown Reservoir and the Northern Prairie National Wildlife Research Area, reflecting a transition from urban center to managed prairie and water resources. Smaller settlements and neighborhoods like Parkhurst and several mobile home parks illustrate the residential expansion during the mid-1990s.
