Geographical Center Of North America Monument
US Hwy. 2, Rugby, ND Phone: Not AvailableAbout
The Geographic Center of North America as important a center lies in the town of Rugby. It's marked by a rock obelisk, about 15 feet tall, flanked by poles flying the US and Canadian flags. It is a monument easily missed, standing as it does in the parking lot of a cafe/gift shop (formerly a Conoco station). That's where it was moved when North Dakota widened Highway. Rugby isn't too particular about where, exactly, the center lies as long as it's somewhere in Rugby.
