Explore Brunswick, Maine, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Brunswick, Maine. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Maine or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Brunswick.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Brunswick defines its identity through the persistent movement of the Androscoggin River as it carries freshwater toward the sea. It lies 17.8 miles southeast of Lewiston, ME (from Lewiston, ME: bearing 136°T), and is situated 7.2 miles west of Bath. This waterway serves as the lifeblood of Brunswick, carving a distinct path through a landscape that feels the pull of the distant Atlantic tides. To the east, the brackish waters of Middle Bay Cove reach inland, tempering the air and bringing a salt-tinged clarity to the morning. Small, quiet expanses like Coffin Pond offer a still counterpoint to the rushing current, while the distant silhouette of Oak Ledge provides a rugged horizon against the changing sky. Nearby, the quiet shores of Cow Island break the surface of the water, marking a transition between the firm land and the open, gray expanse of the coast.
Brunswick evolved from early industrial foundations built upon the reliable power of the water that rushes through its center. The mills that once relied on the kinetic energy of the river have transitioned into a modern economy that balances professional services with the enduring legacy of local craftsmanship. Throughout its history, the labor of the people has remained tied to the natural resources of the region, from the timber of the northern woods to the bounty of the nearby maritime environment. Commerce now flows through the streets with a steady, deliberate pace, reflecting a community that values both its heritage and its capacity for innovation. The local economy maintains a resilient character, shaped by the practical needs of those who work the land and the water.
Cultural life in Brunswick finds a focal point in the Federal Street Historic District, where preserved architecture offers a tangible record of the generations who walked these paths. The intellectual spirit of the place is inseparable from the presence of Bowdoin College, an institution that has long served as a beacon for scholarly pursuit and artistic expression. Harriet Beecher Stowe once lived here, crafting literature that would eventually ripple across the entire nation, while Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain remains a figure of immense local reverence for his service and leadership. Throughout the year, the town gathers for events that celebrate the turning seasons, fostering a sense of connection among those who reside amidst the spruce-fir north. This shared life is defined by a quiet dignity, a quality that seems to linger in the long, cool light of a Maine afternoon.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
