Located near the center of Moody Park. Moody Park is bounded by Moody St on the north, S 4th St on the west, Bowman St on the south, and S 3rd St on the east. This benchmark is near the northwest corner of a chainlink fence surrounding a St. Charles waterworks facility. An orange fiberglass witness post is situated near the benchmark. This is a metal rod covered with a cap. This access point is about two inches below ground level. Some of the surrounding grass and dirt cover the benchmark so I was unable to open the cap.
