About this Valparaiso map poster
Valparaiso is the seat of Porter County in northwest Indiana, about an hour from Chicago and a short drive from the Lake Michigan dunes. It sits on the Valparaiso Moraine, a ridge of glacial deposits that curves around the southern end of the lake. That gives the town gentler hills than the flat farmland further south would suggest.
At the centre is a classic Midwestern courthouse square, with a regular grid of downtown blocks around it. The campus of Valparaiso University lies to the southeast, its buildings and lawns forming a distinct open area in the plan. Newer subdivisions wrap around the older streets with curves and cul-de-sacs.
The town is also known through Orville Redenbacher, whose popcorn business was based here, and the popcorn festival held each year in his honour. A Valparaiso map poster leaves that aside and shows the geometry: the square, the grid, the campus, and the small lakes scattered across the moraine to the north.

University campus
Valparaiso University covers a large area southeast of downtown, where lawns, paths and buildings open up the street pattern. It shows as a distinct, quieter zone on the map.
Moraine landscape
The glacial moraine that shares the town's name brings rolling ground and small lakes, so streets at the edges curve and bend instead of following a strict grid.
