HomeServicesTopographical Land Surveys › Elmwood Park, IL

Elmwood Park is a compact, densely built village of brick homes just northwest of Chicago. Second-story additions, garages and rebuilds are the everyday projects here, each starting with a topographic survey of a small, flat lot. Those grades determine how water moves between tightly spaced houses.

What a topographic survey shows

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.

Elmwood Park & Cook County specifics

Elmwood Park is a village of about 25,000 residents coextensive with Leyden Township in northern Cook County. Its land records are maintained by the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. The village is flat and drains toward the Des Plaines River system, so precise elevation differences shape how a rebuilt or expanded lot handles runoff. A topographic survey provides the contours and spot elevations engineers use to grade an Elmwood Park property so drainage stays controlled on its narrow, established lots.

What Elmwood Park-area clients say

Frequently asked questions

Yes; it captures the tight existing grades, walks and structures around the lot so an addition and its drainage can be designed to fit without affecting neighbors.

Site elevations and contours plus the home, driveway, fences, trees and visible utility structures, delivered in CAD format.

No; the boundary survey defines property lines and the topographic survey maps elevations and features, and design projects often need both.
