2011 Map of Luverne NW

About this map

The Sheyenne River winds through the northwest corner of this Steele County landscape, a defining hydrographic feature in an otherwise strictly partitioned agricultural region. The drainage patterns and wetland pockets of Greenview Township are managed by the Greenview Dam, reflecting the critical importance of water control in this part of North Dakota. The map illustrates a sparse but deliberate network of section-line roads, including County Hwy 25 and County Rd 23, which serve the expansive farming tracts. This 2011 survey documents the rural character of the area, where the grid of 120th Ave NE and other local routes provides the primary infrastructure for the region's agricultural economy.
