About this map

Tower City serves as the primary hub in this prairie landscape, straddling the border between Barnes Co and Cass Co. The town's grid is clearly defined by named thoroughfares like Michigan Ave, Minnesota Ave, and Broadway St, reflecting a well-established rural center. To the east of the main settlement lies Greenwood Cem, a vital site for local genealogical research.

North of the residential area, the Maple River meanders through the northeastern corner, providing a natural contrast to the geometric precision of the surrounding section lines and county roads. The small siding or settlement of Koldok is situated west of the main town along the railroad corridor, illustrating the transport-dependent development of this region. This survey documents the area's agricultural character, dominated by a vast network of section roads such as 29th St SE and 130th Ave SE that have defined the North Dakota landscape for generations.
