About Grandview Township

Abandoned townsite

Grand View, also labeled as Grandview, was a town and former county seat of Douglas County, South Dakota. Grand View was located in the southern half of Section 13 of Grandview Township and part of the northern half of Section 24. A historical marker along west of the intersection of 392nd Avenue and 276th Street displays a town map and history. Like many early settlements in the West, it was abandoned as residents moved to towns closer to the railroad, like future county seat Armour.
