Riverside is a historic planned community with curving streets and mature landscapes laid out along the Des Plaines River. Renovation and additions here must respect both the established grades and the community’s design character. A topographic survey records the contours, features and drainage that guide sensitive work.
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.
Riverside counts about 9,300 residents and forms its own Riverside Township in western Cook County. Recorded plats and easement documents for the village are held by the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. The community sits along the Des Plaines River, so floodplain awareness and stormwater control strongly shape project design. Topographic surveys give architects and engineers the elevation base needed to plan grading and drainage on lots near the river and within the historic street pattern.
