Lincolnwood is a compact, affluent village on Chicago’s northern border, home to about 13,000 residents in well-kept residential neighborhoods. Its established lots and substantial home values make precise boundary work a frequent need for additions and rebuilds. A plat of survey gives Lincolnwood owners an exact record of their lines and buildable area.
A plat of survey is a drawing, signed and sealed by a licensed Illinois land surveyor, that locates the corners and boundary lines of your lot and depicts the buildings, driveways, fences and recorded easements on the property. It is the document lenders, title companies and municipal permit desks rely on.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your closing or permit.
Lincolnwood counts roughly 13,000 residents and is coextensive with Niles Township in north Cook County, directly adjacent to Chicago. The village mixes mature residential neighborhoods with newer teardown-and-rebuild activity, where larger replacement homes push toward setback limits and make precise lot-line and easement placement essential. Recorded plats for Lincolnwood properties are filed with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division after the 2020 merger of the Recorder of Deeds into the Clerk’s office. Lincolnwood lies within drainage overseen by the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District, and parcels near the North Shore Channel and local waterways can fall within FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas.

Lincolnwood sees frequent teardown-and-rebuild work, and larger homes often approach setback limits. A plat of survey establishes the exact buildable envelope so the new structure fits within the platted lines and easements.
Lincolnwood corresponds to Niles Township, though plats are recorded county-wide through the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division.
