Explore Binghamton University, New York, 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 Binghamton University, New York. 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 New York 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 Binghamton University.
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.

Binghamton University occupies a position defined by the distinct intersection of urban density and the quiet, shifting currents of the water that shapes its surroundings. The Hudson River flows with a steady, enduring presence just one mile away, carrying the weight of the region toward the nearby open coastline. A maritime atmosphere permeates the air, as the influence of the Wallabout Channel, located only two miles distant, brings a sense of salt and tide to the local climate. To the west, the Morris Canal Basin provides a quiet reprieve, while the waters of Reservoir Number Three rest peacefully three miles from the campus grounds. On the distant horizon, the Appalachian Mountains offer a jagged, violet silhouette that anchors the view against the expansive sky.
Binghamton University serves as an intellectual engine for a region that has long balanced the legacy of industrial ingenuity with the modern demands of a shifting economy. The land itself is protected within the formal boundaries of City Hall Park, ensuring that the campus remains a singular, preserved enclave of activity. Historically, the area transitioned from early trade centers to a landscape defined by the specialized labor and manufacturing that fueled the growth of the state. Today, the local economy draws strength from a diverse mix of academic research, professional services, and the enduring infrastructure of a bustling metropolitan environment. Even as the pace of industry evolves, the proximity to Governors Island and the steady flow of the Hudson River remind those who work and study here of the deep, historical commerce that once defined these shores.
Binghamton University fosters a cultural character shaped by the vibrant, intersecting lives of scholars, residents, and visitors who congregate in this protected urban space. The grounds of City Hall Park act as a central stage for the community, where the rhythm of the day is marked by the movement of people across the open, green landscape. Luminaries such as the writer Rod Serling once drew inspiration from the sensibilities of this region, imbuing their work with a distinct, atmospheric quality that lingers in the local consciousness. Events held throughout the year celebrate this intellectual inheritance, drawing energy from the surrounding waterways and the proximity to the sea. Whether one is observing the particular quality of light as it descends over the Hudson River at dusk or engaging in the scholarly life of the institution, there is a palpable sense of purpose in the air.

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.
