2015 Map of Pierpont

About this map

Pierpont anchors the northern edge of this Day County landscape, situated where the town grid meets the southern reach of the Railway Ave corridor. The geography is defined by the prominent Coteau des Prairies, a high plateau that rises over the surrounding plains, creating a complex pattern of glacial depressions and small water bodies. Central to this topography is Pierpont Lake, which sits west of the town center. The map reveals the rigid section lines of the Public Land Survey System, expressed through a dense network of rural roads like 133rd St and 420th Ave that partition the prairie into a productive agricultural grid. This survey provides a clear view of the transition between the organized settlement at the town site and the undulating terrain of the coteau to the south.
