Park Forest was one of the region’s early planned postwar communities, and its redevelopment often involves reshaping existing residential and commercial areas. Rebuilding within a planned street grid still requires knowing the actual grades. A topographic survey records those elevations, improvements and drainage to guide the 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.
About 21,700 residents live in Park Forest, which spans the Rich and Bloom townships in southern Cook County. Recorded plats and easement documents for the village are held by the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. The community drains toward the Calumet River system, so grading and stormwater management commonly shape project design. Topographic surveys provide the elevation base engineers use to control runoff on redevelopment and infill sites throughout the community.

A redevelopment project in Park Forest generally requires one, because the new design must work with existing grades and drainage. The survey documents those conditions for engineering.
It supplies the elevation and drainage information that grading and stormwater permit reviews rely on.
Elevations are typically tied to a recognized vertical datum so the design integrates with surrounding infrastructure and floodplain data.
