Forest Park is a dense western inner-ring village of apartments, homes and a lively commercial main street beside the Des Plaines River. Redevelopment and additions here contend with tight lots and a nearby river corridor. A topographic survey provides the elevation data that guides drainage design.
A topographic survey maps the elevations, contours and natural and man-made features of a site — grades, structures, utilities, trees and drainage — giving architects and engineers the data they need to design accurately and secure permits.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your project.
Forest Park has about 14,000 residents and is coextensive with a portion of Proviso Township in western Cook County. Its property records are filed with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. The Des Plaines River runs along the community, placing parts of it near FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas and making floodplain-aware drainage design a routine concern. A topographic survey documenting existing elevations, flow paths and features near the river gives engineers the basis for grading and building placement on a Forest Park parcel.

With the Des Plaines River alongside the village and mapped flood hazard areas nearby, a topographic survey’s elevations are key to designing grading and drainage that manage water.
